THE BEE-MAN OF ORN by Frank R. Stockton

THE BEE-MAN OF ORN

Publisher: Holt, Rinehart & Winston

The perfect companion to last year's The Griffin and the Minor Canon, endak has rescued another of Stockton's great short stories from near oblivion. The Bee-man's search for true identity leads him once again to such never-to-be-forgotten characters as the Languid Youth and the Junior Sorcerer made even more memorable by Mr. Sendak's illustrations. The power of Stockton's dead pan humor has not diminished with the years and the artist has captured it at full strength in full color.
