Tell Me a Mitzi
Tell Me a Mitzi
Three hilarious, quirky tales about a young city girl's adventures big and small, from taking a taxi to meeting the president. Lore Segal's classic children's book tells three stories about Mitzi and her family, whose lives unfold within a gritty and yet dreamy cityscape of stoops and row houses that seem to have emerged from a time out of time. In the first story, Mitzi dresses up her baby brother and sets out with him to visit their grandparents, a venturesome undertaking that takes a curious turn when a key piece of information proves missing. In the second, Mitzi's whole family falls sick, but a fool-proof remedy rides in to the rescue. In the last, the president comes to town and Mitzi's day is made. Lore Segal's droll dialogue and off-kilter storytelling are beautifully complemented by Harriet Pincus's unnervingly earnest and goofy underground comic-book style illustrations, which won the praise of Maurice Sendak. These are stories about childhood independence and family closeness that capture childhood in all its puzzlement, resourcefulness, unsentimental wonder.
Mitzi lives with her mother and father and her baby brother in the big city where every day is an adventure. Or at least Mitzi makes it one, though sometimes the adventure is more than a little surprising. One day it's time to pay an impromptu visit to her grandparents. And what will happen when the president comes to town? Who knows what Mitzi will get up to next? In Tell Me a Mitzi Lore Segal's droll dialogue and off- kilter story telling is beautifully matched by Harriet Pincus's gritty and colorful illustrations. These are stories that capture childhood in all its puzzlement, resourcefulness, and unsentimental wonder.
