This is the story of when I was a boy, almost 100 years ago, when fire engines were pulled by horses, boys did not play with girls, kids went to libraries for books, there was no TV, you could see a movie for a nickel and everybody wore a hat.

[William Steig Signature]

As one of his final (and finest) gifts to children’s literature, this critically acclaimed, vivacious, and beautifully rendered autobiography keeps the beloved William Steig’s voice alive for readers today and always.
