A collection of nursery rhymes features "The Golden Goose," "Three Bears," "The Three Little Pigs," and "Tom Thumb," and includes color and black-and-white reproductions from the original 1904 text. They are retold beautifully, the writing is emotional and reminiscent of nursery rhymes. The book was originally published in 1904, and the pictures are totally recognizable as being of that era...detailed and descriptive of the story.
