I want to be a Coal Miner

A vintage children's book that I found in a thrift store.
"I Want to be a Coal Miner"

by Carla Greene
Illustrated by Audrey Williamson

Copyright 1957

I thought the idea of children aspiring to become coal miners was pretty funny. When I opened it I saw that the illustrations are amazing so I had to get it. Here's some of the best pages scanned in.
