I have submitted two stumpers.\u00a0 We believe they’re by the same author, but don’t remember.\u00a0 We think the author is also the illustrator, but could be mistaken.\u00a0 These aren’t quite board books, but little hardback picture books for very young readers.
\nThe first book is about a little prince who wants to play with other people, but he’s considered too special.\u00a0 In the end he gets to play with the others.\u00a0 Probably published in the late 1970s or early 1980s.<\/p>\n
A remarkable and memorable thing about this book was its illustration.<\/p>\n
The graphics were geometrical and simple, almost primitive, and the colors were bold.\u00a0 The prince had black hair and the main colors in that book were green, red, yellow, black, and white.<\/p>\n
My parents bought the books for me at a little bookstore in Elmira, NY, when I was small, probably right around 1980-83.\u00a0 Would love to find these books for my own boy.\u00a0 Thanks for any help!<\/p>\n
