Publisher's Notes
You know Little Miss Muffet, Jack & Jill, and Humpty Dumpty, but would you recognize Little Tommy Tucker, Jack Sprat, and the Man in the Moon? James Christensen's "Rhyme and Reasons" invites you take a gander (pun intended) at favorite Mother Goose rhymes and find out. Characters from seventy-three classic nursery rhymes are depicted in Christensen's fantastic and vivid painting, with text and annotations accompanying seventy-two: Which rhyme is missing? Put on your thinking cap and enjoy a new approach to a centuries-old tradition which will delight young and old alike.
