Opis

This charming book contains Mother Gooses Nursery Rhymes dressed by the delightfully vivid, energetic colour plates and black and white line drawings of Jennie Harbour. Many of the earliest childrens books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children. About the Illustrator: Very little about Jenny Harbour is known other than that she published briefly in the 1920s and provided illustrations for Raphael Tuck, a renowned printer of illustrated postcards. Vibrant colours and Art Deco patterns full of energy and emotion characterise Harbours work. Her postcards and illustrated books are now valuable collectors items.
