by Jackie Morris (Illustrator)

A wonderfully illustrated and sumptuous collection of nursery rhymes for all ages, including many favorite rhymes as well as some that will be a delightful discovery. Originally published as The Cat and the Fiddle in 2011, this edition includes a new introduction by Jackie Morris--a spirited defense of the nursery rhyme, which she fears is in danger of being forgotten in a digital world. The beautiful and detailed watercolor paintings combine with more than 40 rhymes to make this a unique treasury and lifetime possession for children and adults of all ages.

Author Biography

Jackie Morris's fame has risen to new heights with the the immense success of The Lost Words (with Robert Macfarlane), for which she won the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal in 2019. An author as well as an artist, she still owns a well-thumbed and well-loved collection of nursery rhymes from her own childhood, and is a strong believer in their value for extending children's sense of wonder and pleasure in words. Mrs Noah's Pockets (with James Mayhew) was longlisted for the Kate Greenaway Award and a White Ravens choice for Best International Picture Book.
