It certainly wasn't the day that Alan Mitz stumbled into the garden of Abdul Gasazi. For in this bizarre and eerie place -- where strange topiary trees loomed -- the evil visage of Gasazi casts its shadow. And even after Alan escaped, the spell of Gasazi still seemed to penetrate into his everyday world. In this extraordinary, unusual, and unique picture book, Chris Van Allsburg explores both the real and surreal worlds with incredible deftness. In doing so, he has created exquisite and beautiful images that will continue to haunt readers long after they have left the enchanted garden of Abdul Gasazi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Houghton Mifflin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/1979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780395278048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.93h x 12.03w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Caldecott Medal - Honor Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Boston Globe-Horn Book Awards - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Irma S. \u0026amp; James H.
