By F. Scott Fitzgerald, Illustrated by Vanessa Davis
This is Volume 3 of Scout Book's new Good Inks series of great American shorts.
Each 32-page volume features a must-read American author juxtaposed with a contemporary illustrator, creating a unique artistic collaboration across the years.
F. Scott Fitzgerald’s tales of the cultural tumult of a generation defined the “Jazz Age.” In this early story, he paints a nuanced portrait of teen angst and romantic longing set against the backdrop of a once-quiet Southern town.
Illustrator Vanessa Davis’ fluid and lively drawings work hand-in-hand with Fitzgerald’s gorgeous prose to bring the “The Jelly-Bean” to vibrant life.
