This edition is one of the earliest and most beloved Little Golden Books, offering a rich treasury of traditional nursery rhymes. It was first published in 1942 by Simon and Schuster as part of the original Little Golden Books series.

The book contains over 40 classic nursery rhymes, including:

The Little Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe,

She had so many children, And loved them all, too.

She said, "Thank you Lord Jesus,

For sending them bread."

Jack and Jill

Jack and Gill went up the hill

To fetch a pail of water;

Jack fell down and broke his crown

And Gill came tumbling after.

Hey Diddle Diddle

Hey diddle diddle,

The cat and the fiddle,

The cow jumped over the moon;

The little dog laughed

To see such sport,

And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Little Miss Muffet

Little Miss Muffet

Sat on a tuffet,

Eating her curds and whey;

There came a big spider,

Who sat down beside her

And frightened Miss Muffet away.

Baa Baa Black Sheep
