This is a delightfully presented compilation of familiar nursery songs, poems, and stories. I have hunted for Willebeek Le Mair books that I could afford for over 35 years. The originals are so expensive and often very fragile. Some of the reprints have not had very high quality pictures. This is one of the nicest modern collections of her lovely drawings that I have found. Warne has also published The Mother Goose Treasury (ISBN 0723245495) and A.A. Milne's A Gallery of Children (ISBN 1723246661) illustrated by her - both beautifully done as well. The BONUS in this book is that it contains two fairy tales with Le Mair illustrations, Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood. I have never seen these before and they are darling. A Must-Buy!
