Summary |
"This is the tale of eccentric Uncle Arly whose shoes were always far too tight and whose way of life was altogether extraordinary. His discovery one morning of a First-Class Railway Ticket led to a memorable meeting with a pea-green cricket who become his constant, chirping companion for forty-three years, until the irresistible Uncle Arly breathed his last on a heap of Barley. Dale Maxey's vibrant pictures of rubicund, gay Uncle Arly with his outsize red beard, will secure him a merited place in the affections of all young readers." -- BOOK JACKET |
