Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bring an experience from your childhood back or pass the joy of nursery rhymes on to the next generation with this fantastic illustrated collection. The Big Book of Nursery Rhymes contains a huge array of rhymes and songs, enough to satisfy any reader. It has all the most popular rhymes and is a great resource for anyone who remembers these charming parts of childhood but has less than perfect recall of them. As is natural with an originally oral tradition some of the versions here may be slightly different to the ones you remember from childhood, additionally some are greatly extended from the simple versions we remember to a full length rhyme. Most of us remember Simple Simon met a pie man going to the fair, but few probably know that once Simon made a great snowball and brought it in to roast. This is just one extra verse of many from the full length nursery rhyme. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Nursery Rhymes of England Classic Reprint written by James Orchard Halliwell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nursery Rhymes of England The nursery rhyme is the novel and light reading of the infant scholar. It occupies, with respect to the A B C, the position of a romance which relieves the mind from the cares of a riper age. The absurdity and fri volity of a rhyme may naturally be its chief attractions to the very young; and there will be something lost from the imagination of that child, whose parents insist so much on matters of fact, that the cow must be made, in compliance with the rules of their educational code, to jump under instead of over the moon; while of course the little dog must be considered as barking, not laughing at the circumstance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Rhymes and Nursery Tales: A Sequel to the Nursery Rhymes of England IT were greatly to be desired that the instructors of our children could be persuaded how much is lost by rejecting the venerable relics of nursery traditional literature, and substituting in their place the present cold, unimaginative, - I had almost said, unnatural, prosaic good-boy stories. In the latter case, oh serves Sir Walter Scott, their minds are, as it were, put into the stocks, like their feet at the dancing-school, and the moral always consists in good conduct being crowned with success. Truth is, I would not give one tear shed over Little Red Riding Hood for all the benefit to be derived from a hundred histories of J emmy Goodchild. I think the selfish tendencies will be soon enough acquired in this arithmetical age; and that, to make the higher class of character, our own wild fictions - like our own simple music - will have more effect in awakening the fancy and elevating the disposition, than the colder and more elaborate compositions of modern authors and composers.
