- Unnumbered pages. The [iii] refers to the two illustrated frontispieces and illustrated title page; the [35] is the count of the actual story pages (text + illustrations).
- Print version of the 1939 cartoon film "Scrambled Eggs", with some simplifications.
- The book is credited only to "Elaine and Willy Pogany", but is known to have been written by Elaine and illustrated by Willy. (See the "Scrambled Eggs" link.)
- 14 full-page color drawings + 21 pages of text, which contain 23 smaller b&w drawings. Full-color frontispiece + b&w frontispiece, illustrated title page, illustrated end papers. The birds' nests are drawn in a style very much like traditional Hungarian Easter eggs, very likely reflecting Willy Pogany's Hungarian heritage.
- The picture here shows the hard board cover. The dust jacket is identical, except without the black binding on the left.
