It is the story of a fisherman who found a pearl beyond price, the Pearl of the World. With the pearl, he hoped to buy peace and happiness for himself, his wife and their little son. Instead he found that peace and happiness are not to be purchased. They are, themselves, pearls beyond price. The Pearl is a book to be read many times and cherished forever. "" The Red Pony This edition contains the four related short stories that made up the original 'Red Pony' ('The Gift', 'The Great Mountains', 'The Promise', and 'The Leader of the People'). ""The Red Pony is the story of a boy who dreamed great dreams, of the sorrel colt that was the focus of those dreams, of the land that nourished them, of the mountains that hid their fulfillment. Steinbeck's early masterpiece reveals his profound love of many things - children and their wondrous imaginings, mountains, animals, people - and the land."
