The Peter Patter Book of Nursery Rhymes
Leroy F. Jackson's 1918 book of original nursery rhymes, pictured by Blanche Fisher Wright. The rhymes are credited to Peter Patter, who lives on a mountain pretty near the sun with a bed of cedar bark, knows the bears and birds and rabbits nearly every one, and gets the best of his verses from his Uncle Owl; the two sit under an oak at night hugging each other tight and swapping rhymes and riddles where the catty creatures prowl. What follows is over a hundred short pieces — Hippity Hop to Bed, The Animal Show, On the Road to Tattletown — built for reading aloud.
