This recreation of Walter Crane's 19th Century book of nursery rhymes is packed with rhymes, riddles, alphabets, and rhyming stories, and illustrated with 300 original illustrations Sir John Gilbert, R.A., John Tenniel, Harrison Weir, Walter Crane, W. Mcconnell, J. B. Zwecker, "And Others." Children and adults alike will delight in these traditionasl, classic nursery rhymes and songs. Young children will learn their alphabet as they enjoy these rhymes. Preserving and republishing this, and similar, nursery rhyme collections helps to preserve the literary and cultural heritage of the English-speaking world, which should never be allowed to sink into obscurity. The history and culture of England are the history and culture of many throughout the world, and should always be cherished. Parents, grandparents, older siblings, and care-givers can do few things better than to encourage young children to read, and to give them words of quality to read; Mother Goose's timeless nursery rhymes will feed the imaginations of the children who hear and read them. Nursery rhymes and illustrations appear in their original order, on their original page numbers, but the arrangement of some illustrations with the rhymes the accompany may not be as they were arranged in the original. Also, the index of first lines has been moved to the end of the book. Nursery rhymes that were acceptable for children of the 19th Century might prove confusing or unsettling for children of the 21st Century, so far removed in tiome from the manners and issues of that time; parents are encouraged to read these rhymes with their children.
