Publisher's Synopsis
"Rumbo Rhymes, or The Great Combine," by Mr. Alfred C. Calmour, and "rendered into pictures" by Mr. Walter Crane, teaches, in a set of rollicking jingles, the wrongfulness of eating, beating, over-working, and otherwise oppressing our brothers and sisters of the brute creation. The book may fall considerably short of making all its readers vegetarians, but it is sure to amuse them if they be young in years, or in heart, or in both. The numerous animal pictures, are in Mr. Crane's well-known style, and most happily match the rhymes in whimsical and good-natured absurdity.
-The Dial [1910]
