Description

Following the runaway bestsellers This is New York and This is Paris, Universe is pleased to reissue another title from M. Sasek’s beloved and nostalgic children’s shuttle series. Like the other Sasek classics, This is Texas is a facsimile edition of his original book that may be still timely and current in each and every way. The stylish, charming illustrations, coupled with Sasek’s witty, playful narrative, make the book a perfect souvenir so as to delight both children and their parents, many of whom will keep in mind that it from their childhood. The brilliant, vibrant illustrations have been meticulously preserved, remaining true to his vision more than forty years later and, where applicable, facts have been up to date for the twenty-first century, appearing on a “This is … Today” page in the back of every book. In This is Texas, first published in 1967, M. Sasek rides high in the saddle, lassoing the entire color and colossal span of Texas as he tours the state from Dallas, Houston, and Austin to the Alamo. From its cattle, coyotes, and cowboys to its oil wells, rodeo and rattlesnakes, the whole thing in the biggest state is bigger than anywhere else.
