Description

This collection contains 3 stories: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Bernice Bobs Her Hair, and A Diamond as Big as the Ritz. Born an old man, Benjamin Button lived a very curious life, backwards. When Benjamin Button's father arrives at the hospital, he is surprised and ashamed to find his new baby boy is a weathered, aged man, to all appearances no younger than seventy years old. As time goes by, young Benjamin comes to no longer require a cane, his hair ceases to be grey, his limbs become less frail, his wrinkles less deep, but still the world around him fails to come to terms with his oddness, as he ages towards infancy and beyond.
