[Michlib-l] Half Remembered Picture Book

[Kimberlee Gardner]

Hello amazing librarians!

We had a patron come in earlier inquiring about an old picture book she
read when she was a little girl in the early or mid-1980's. While she
doesn't remember the title or the author of the book she was able to
describe a few key features of the story. According to the patrons memory,
the gist of the story is a sword swallower who injures himself while
swallowing a sword. While in the hospital his daughter draws with chalk on
the sidewalk outside until his release. She said she remembers the
illustrations as being really nice. I've had no luck searching Mel or
Worldcat.

Any ideas? Please reply to me directly.

Thank you,
