"Three Ladies by the Seaconsists of more nonsense about the formal activities of three ladies of nobility with the exception of Alice who insists upon in a tree where she seeks a bird she saw long ago." -Charlotte Jackson,Los Angeles Times, "A rhymed story of charming eccentricity, Rhoda Levine's  Three Ladies Beside the Sea  has a fable-like quality. Three friends -- Edith of Ecstasy, Catherine of Compromise and Alice of Hazard -- live in harmony, doing their chores, drinking tea and playing chamber music. (Once you've seen Edward Gorey's pictures of their elongated figures and their odd, tower-shaped cottages, it's impossible to imagine them otherwise.) Alice has a disturbing habit of climbing a tree -- in all weather! -- and gazing intently out at the sky. It's a compulsion, she explains when her friends confront her about it...Ah, then why does she do it? There's the question, to which Levine and Gorey's answer seems to be: One has to accept all kinds of mysteries in friends." -- Los Angeles Times "Ms. Levine's wry imagination and Mr. Gorey's powerfully epicene drawings (figure that one out) constitute a whole new country for a child to visit or for a lucky grandfather to act as tour guide. ...This is, of course, a must for the many Edward Gorey fans of all ages, and a chance to discover the fine poetry of Rhoda Levine. I read this one to my five year old grand-daughter because it is just long enough to be engaging and just short enough to be wiggle proof, and just wise enough to set a young imagination free as a bird." -Sherman Yellen,  The Huffington Post   " Three Ladies by the Sea consists of more nonsense about the formal activities of the three ladies of nobility with the exception of Alice who insists upon in a tree where she seeks a bird she saw long ago." --Charlotte Jackson, Los Angeles Times, "A rhymed story of charming eccentricity, Rhoda Levine's Three Ladies Beside the Sea has a fable-like quality.

    Great communication with seller. Item arrived broken because of shipping. Sent the seller a picture of the damage and they replied immediately and refunded my money. I rated item as it was before it shipped. The price was good and it was in good quality before shipping. Would buy from this seller again.
