Description
"A dazzling adaptation of black folklore. Zemach's paintings explode with color, action, humor, and poignancy as they reflect the story of a poor man and his cantankerous mule, Honeybunch."-Publishers Weekly.
"There are touches of Ben Shahn, visual echoes of Marc Chagall and WPA murals...Praise be."-Karla Kuskin, The New York Times Book Review
