A true classic with a timeless message, The Story of Ferdinand has enchanted readers since it was first published in 1936. All the other bulls would run and jump and butt their heads together. But Ferdinand would rather sit and smell the flowers. So what will happen when our pacifist hero is picked for the bullfights in Madrid? This new edition contains the complete original text of the story and the original illustrations with watercolor tones added.


Baker & Taylor
A gentle Spanish bull would much rather smell flowers than fight

Baker
& Taylor

Ferdinand likes to sit quietly and smell the flowers, but one day he gets stung by a bee and his snorting and stomping convince everyone that he is the fiercest of bulls.

This is such a fantastic little book. I remembered it from when I was a child and bought it for both of my kids. A classic.

I love the black and white drawings, they are gently realistic and beautiful. The pacing of the story makes this a fun one to read out loud.
