On market street

Have you ever seen a man dressed entirely in playing cards? Or a girl wearing a lollipop dress? Then take a stroll through a most unusual market in this Caldecott Honor Book created by Anita Lobel and Arnold Lobel.

Here is a world of wonders, from A to Z. Inspired by seventeenth century French trade engravings, Anita Lobel’s brilliant paintings of the shopkeepers on Market Street – each composed of his or her wares – will provide blissful hours for all who join the Lobels on an unforgettable shopping spree.
