A Apple Pie and Traditional Nursery Rhymes

Author(s): Kate Greenaway

Children's Non Fiction

This charming volume brings back into print some of the finest illustrated children's books from the Arts and Crafts Movement: Kate Greenaway's much-loved alphabet book, A Apple Pie," " along with a selection of her illustrated nursery rhymes.
Greenaway's drawings conjure up a never-never land of rural simplicity and innocence-an escape from the squalor of Victorian cities-that is as delightful now as it was when these gems of children's literature first appeared in the 1880s.
