One of the best things about that book's unequivocal and unanticipated success is the opportunity to restore and reprint another volume of Splendid Sundays, a volume to include some of those other wonderful pages. In fact, we couldn't, so we ended up with 109 pages. Oh!Ĭaption: Down down down he shot through miles and miles of space.Ĭaption: Over and over he turned in his descent causing intense anguish.Ĭaption: And becoming so dizzy that he thought he was going to die he began to scream.One of the most difficult things about publishing our first Little Nemo in Slumberland volume was trying to limit the selection to only 100 Sunday pages for the Centennial edition. Nemo clutched at the saddle but could not hold fast so over he went.
Try as he might Nemo could not hold her back.Ĭaption: They fairly flew through the sky until Somnus stumbled on a star.
Nemo found her beyond his control and running away. What do you say?Ĭaption: When he found the race was to be a free-for-all hurdle race with all manner of strange looking creatures also contesting, he proceeded to withdraw from it.Ĭaption: Not so with Somnus.
He accepted because he thought it would be easy to win with Somnus. See it all!Ĭaption: After traveling some thousands of miles he met the Oomp in disguise who cautioned him again to be careful about speeding his faithful mount.Ĭaption: Nemo obeyed until he came up with a green kangaroo who challenged him to a race. Oomp: Slumberland is the most wonderful place in the sky. "But be good to your horse and you will arrive there safe and sound." Oomp: His name is Somnus and he's as gentle as can be.Ĭaption: Nemo was surprised as well as delighted to receive the king's invitation, so he scrambled out of bed and mounted the prancing pony which now appeared.Ĭaption: "Slumberland is a long way off through many miles of weird scenes," said Oomp.
Oomp: And I've brought a little spotted night horse for you to ride but you mustn't whip him or drive him fast. King Morpheus: His majesty requests the presence of Little Nemo.Ĭaption: Little Nemo had just fallen asleep when an Oomp appeared who said, "You are requested to appear before his majesty, Morpheus of Slumberland."
