Price: $250.00

Hardcover. First Japanese edition. Illustrated by William Pène du Bois. Translated by Nana Mirai. Slim 12mo. Glazed pictorial boards. Fine in spine-sunned printed wraparound band. Nicely Inscribed to the author Charlotte Zolotow by the translator Nana Mirai facing the title page: "To my dearest Charlotte Zolotow, with much love Nana 2007 Sept. 11." A nice association: Mirai translated at least a dozen of Zolotow's books into Japanese. The first edition of *William's Doll*, published in 1972, was an early children's book that addressed nontraditional gender stereotypes.
