This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Mother Goose’s Nursery Rhymes and Fairy Tales’ is a collection of classic fairy tales and nursery rhymes, penned by the legendary (and only some claim imaginary), ‘Mother Goose.’ They have inspired many folklorists and illustrators (including Charles Perrault, Arthur Rackham, Jessie Willcox-Smith and Jennie Harbour) – as well as countless generations of children and parents. Included are classic rhymes such as ‘Pat a Cake’, ‘This Little Piggie Went to Market’, ‘Hey Diddle Diddle’, ‘A Song of Sixpence’, and many more. This edition is profusely illustrated throughout, with woodcuts from many Golden Age illustrators such as John Gilbert, John Tenniel, Harrison Weir, Walter Crane, W. McConnell and others. Originally published in 1896, it also includes six delightful colour plates. The illustrations are presented in conjunction with the ‘Mother Goose Rhymes’ – both aspects further refining and elucidating the other. Pook Press celebrates the great ‘Golden Age of Illustration‘ in children’s literature – a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children’s stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors.

Download or read book 100 Nineteenth century Rhyming Alphabets in English from the Library of Ruth M Baldwin written by Ruth Marie Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The library of Ruth M. Baldwin contains, at the present time, about 35,000titles and editions of children's books in English, all before 1900and mostly from the nineteenth century. Though a small part of the out­pouring of children's books in English in the nineteenth century--estimated to be as much as a quarter of a million volumes--her library is probably unique in its equal representation of American and English children's books. How many of the books published were rhyming alphabets is difficult to say. These hundred books presented here, certainly a small part of the whole, bear publication dates around the early part of the second half of the century, and represent the whole century well, for true children's book publishing did not precede this by much. Children and readers in general as well as students of children's literature should find this book of books interesting. The alphabets repro­duced here are included in their entirety, many of them in color, and are grouped thematically under such topics as nature, animals, and farm life.
