Description

Brand new. Wonderful verses which have gone down through generations; now perhaps viewed as quite horrific, but in another age were recited by children in fun and with relish – Jim, who ran away from his nurse and was eaten by a lion; Matilda who told lies and was burned to death; Henry King, who chewed bits of string and was early cut off in dreadful agonies etc! Some marks to the cover due to age, but otherwise in good condition and wonderful to pass on to future generations, when it’s destined to become an important collector’s item. Softcover. Published by Loki’s Publishing 2017.
