Mother Goose's Nursery Rhymes

Every child's bookshelf should start with a collection of nursery rhymes so that these fantastic and nonsensical verses (some so old their meaning is long forgotten) are among the first magical words to sound in a child's ear. This collection of over two hundred rhymes was assembled in 1903 with the family in mind ('Tradition in the nursery has acted as a severe editor'). and each page is illustrated each verse decorated, with the imcomparable drawing of Charles Robinson.

Reviews

A master of the unpredictable

—— Daily Telegraph

One of the most able poets for children around is Kit Wright.

—— Independent

Enchanting... will cause rapturous giggles as well as encouraging a sense of word play and imagery that no home should be without.

—— Daily Telegraph

He's funny, clever, nimble and moving. Above all, his poetic generosity refuses to consider serious subjects as out of bounds just because he's writing for a young audience.

—— Evening Standard
