Noodle by Leaf, Munro. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780590043090.

The landmark collaboration of two of childrens books most beloved talents, Ludwig Bemelmans and Munro Leaf, available again! Noodle is a little dog whos very long from front to back and very short from top to bottom, which makes it hard for him to dig for bones. One day Noodle finds a wishbone, and the dog fairy arrives with a flip-flap of wings to grant him a wish: "What size and shape do you want to be?" Noodle asks all the animals at the zoo what he should wish for, only to discover he might just be perfect -- exactly the way he is. Originally published in 1937 by childrens book greats Ludwig Bemelmans and Munro Leaf, NOODLE is a classic with a quiet wisdom that continues to hold true today.
