Robert McCloskey, best known for
Make Way for Ducklings also wrote and illustrated a short series of stories for children starring Homer Price, an engaging character and charming Midwestern setting. In this wise and dryly funny collection, Homer catches robbers with the aid of a skunk, comes face to face with a superhero, and in my favorite, tries to fix a runaway donut machine.
Centerburg Tales features more adventures of Homer Price.
