About this product

Product Information

The jolly and exciting tale of the little boy who lost his red coat and his blue trousers and his purple shoes but who was saved from the tigers to eat 169 pancakes for his supper, has been universally loved by generations of children. First written in 1899, the story has become a childhood classic and the authorized American edition with the original drawings by the author has sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Little Black Sambo is a book that speaks the common language of all nations, and has added more to the joy of little children than perhaps any other story. They love to hear it again and again; to read it to themselves; to act it out in their play.

    This is my first EBay purchase, but getting this book in such great condition and so quickly made me feel more at ease. This is a book I remember from my childhood with a wonderful story and I just hate what people have made it into. It’s an easy read and I will treasure it.
