"Rescued from oblivion by fans from the ‘50s, David and the Phoenix has landed, and it is sure to delight readers who discover this charming fantasy. David discovers a phoenix in his backyard, and brings him all the cookies. In exchange, David enjoys marvelous adventures as he rides astride the huge bird.
