1962 Mud Pies and Other Recipes – Marjorie Winslow

From my mom’s personal book collection. A beautiful vintage of Mud Pies and Other Recipes by Marjorie Winslow, illustrated by the acclaimed Erik Blegvad. Originally published in 1961 by The Macmillan Company, this is the Third Printing (1962) and retains its original dust jacket, making it an increasingly difficult edition to find in such well-preserved condition. This whimsical classic celebrates imaginative outdoor play through creative “recipes” made from leaves, flowers, sand, shells, berries, and other treasures found in nature. It has become a beloved collectible among vintage children’s book enthusiasts.
