Publisher's Synopsis
Hey Diddle Diddle and Baby Bunting is written and illustrated by Randolf Caldecott who was famous from "The house that Jack built," "Sing a song of six pence" and etc. His book was always included the lovely pictures for children to create their imagination and begin for drawing. Nursery rhymes are often consolidated into collections, such as Mother Goose, a famous collection of nursery rhymes that actually originated in France. Translations were published in England and the United States, and later authors added rhymes or new interpretations to the collection. Many English-speaking children are familiar with at least one collection of Mother Goose rhymes. Some of these collections use very old rhymes, so the language of a Mother Goose nursery rhyme can sometimes be confusing for modern children, but it provides an interesting window into the way that people once spoke. This coloring story book is based on the original nursery rhymes Hey Diddle Diddle and Baby Bunting by Frederick Warne, that were written during a different era. Some readers may find Baby Bunting to be insensitive for modern times. Please consider the content of this nursery rhyme before gifting this book. Within the pages, you will find reproductions of artwork used alongside the original nursery rhymes. The line art drawings add a distinctive charm and a unique style to finished pieces. We have chosen to leave an ample amount of white space on each page, so that you can expand on the images and make them uniquely yours!
