Mother Goose In Prose

Baum, L.Frank
No publisher’s date given (circa 1970's Reprint). Bounty Books , New York, United States

Here is the man who gave us The Wonderful Wizard of Oz now tackling some of the most famous characters in the English language together with an imaginative artist well known in his country at the time to become a great team working on classics like Little Boy Blue, Old King Cole, Jack Horner and Humpty Dumpty to name only a few. Certainly a charming book and many of these Nursery Rhymes are complete tales in themselves.
