An enchanting collection of nursery rhymes illustrated with beautiful artwork by Dorothy M. Wheeler from 1916. Features a foreword by former Children's Laureate Chris Riddell.
Dorothy M. Wheeler (1891-1966) was an illustrator who
worked primarily in watercolours and ink. She illustrated books by
authors such as Enid Blyton and Anne MacDonald and the artwork in
this book was one of her first published projects.
Chris Riddell is a much loved illustrator and acclaimed
political cartoonist. He won the 2013 Costa Children's Book Prize
for Goth Girl and has won the Nestlé Gold Award and two Kate
Greenaway Medals. He is co-creator of the hugely successful New
York Times bestseller The Edge Chronicles.
Every child's bookcase needs a book of Classic Nursery Rhymes and
this is a beautiful and nostalgic hardback... this has a strong
sense of having been handed down from an earlier generation.
