Publisher's Synopsis
In the mid-1950s, legendary avant-garde composer John Cage and artist Lois Long created a truly marvelous object. Part artist's book, part cookbook and part children's book, Mud Book is a spirited, if not satirical, take on almost every child's first attempt at cooking and making. Through the humble mud pie-add dirt and water! Cage and Long encourage children to explore their imagination and to get their hands dirty, and they offer this warning: Mud pies are to make and look at, not to eat.
A unique hybrid of art book, unconventional cookbook and inspiration for young makers, this new edition of Mud Book will delight children and parents alike and makes a charming gift for all ages.
