A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface There was Who Killed Cock Robin? which I knew by heart before I could read, and I learned to read (entirely without tears )by picking out. the letters in the familiar words. I remember theL ark dressed as a clerk, but what a clerk might be I did not ask. Other children, who are little now, will read this book, and remember it well when they have forgotten a great deal of history and geography. We do not know what poets wrote the old Nursery Rhymes, but certainly some of them were written down, or even printed, three hundred years ago. Grandmothers have sung them to their grandchildren, and they again to theirs, for many centuries.
