Four of your Best Friends / The details in this illustration are incredible - the little hat the “Fresh Air” window is wearing, the bag of who knows what the tennis racket carries, the fact that the bed is on wheels and the knowledge that “Pure Food” is served steaming hotI also love that the child who owned the book originally also numbered the “friends” 1-2-3-4.
