The House of Sixty Fathers

Condition: Used - Like New

Meindert DeJong is the winner of the 1954 Newbery Award for The Wheel on the School. The New York Herald Tribune praised this book for its insight that stimulates the imagination and its clear beauty, like that of a Vermeer painting. The scene of this latest book by Mr. DeJong is China, during the Japanese occupation. Young Tien Pao is alone on his family's sampan when the boat breaks loose from its moorings and is caught by the rushing waters of the river.
