Quasit's Daily Book Recommendations: "The Adventures of Phunsi" (1946) by Alison Mason Kingsbury

It's Thursday, so it's time to recommend a book for children! This one is an old favorite, and •incredibly• obscure. Written and illustrated by Alison Mason Kingsbury (and I have something to say about children's books and illustrators, one of these days), it's a lovely chapter book that's abundantly illustrated in memorable black & white images. I'd say it would work well for children from three to twelve years old, or older. I still love it myself. And I read it to my son when •he• was a toddler.

It's the story of Phunsi, a baby zebra in Africa who can run so fast that he disappears. Unfortunately when he goes THAT fast, he can't see where he's going either! And so he ends up in a trap with his mother (who was following him), and shipped off to the Central Park Zoo.

But life in a cage has limitations for a zebra who loves to run fast, and Phunsi decides that since he's a great runner he can become a great •jumper•, too. So it's not long before he's out of the cage and in the big world of New York City - and beyond.

His adventures could fill a book, of course. A pet shop, the rooftops of New York where he encounters a morose cat, a race track, a circus, a meadow full of cows...the stories are lovely, beautifully illustrated, and are often accompanied with songs or verses—many of them •themselves• stories.

"When the way opens straight
Who will even hesitate?
And, with nothing to confuse,
Who will run in curlicues,
Who indeed?
Here's a path without a bend,
Hurry, slowpokes, reach the end.
Show your speed!

Here I stand with my fur
In a pattern, not a blur
Nor in any queer disguise—
Simply something which your eyes
Ought to see.
I am black, I am white,
I am plain as day and night,
I am me."

Sadly the book is long out of print. Amazon 🤮 sells used copies for $90; biblio.com sells them for $25 to $30. There are NO pirated versions as far as I know. The Internet Archive never heard of it. Your only other chance is interlibrary loan, I fear. Although it should enter the public domain in about 13 years; if I'm still alive, I'll scan and post it then.

But it's a true treasure. I hope you find a copy.

In the meantime, a lot of art (but sadly not the text) from the book is available on Cornell University's website:

Happy reading! 🤓📖
