{"product_id":"the-fox-and-the-clam-eric-kraft-9781105784880","title":"The Fox and the Clam","description":"Leroy recalls his childhood friend Matthew Barber. Peter and Matthew seem unlikely friends. Matthew finds little to like in life, and his outlook is decidedly blue. Peter finds much to like in life, though nearly everything puzzles him, and he is essentially sanguine about his future, no matter how groundless his optimism might be. Eventually the friends find, as most friends do, that each has added to his developing self a little of the other. \"A set of thematic variations (ranging from a Saturday-afternoon cartoon about a happy hippo and an unhappy one to a deadly competition having to do with skipping third grade) that raise complicated farce to the level of calculus.\" Anna Shapiro, The New Yorker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric Kraft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1105784886\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781105784880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 4.25w x 0.17d","brand":"Eric Kraft","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48799848169727,"sku":"9781105784880","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-fox-and-the-clam-eric-kraft-9781105784880","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
