Pretzel

Pretzel (Harper 1944) was the first book on which
Margret Rey's name appeared as an author. She often
provided ideas and edited the text and illustrations
created by her husband, but this was the first time
that she actually received credit for her creativity.
In the concluding pages of the story, Pretzel finally
captures the heart of Greta; they marry and have a litter
of five puppies. The sequel, Pretzel and the Five
Puppies, consists of a series of two-page stories
presented in a picture strip format similar to a comic
strip. These short stories also appeared in Good
Housekeeping magazine in the late 1940's. A balloon
replica of Pretzel was featured in a Macy's Christmas
Parade.
