# The Jackie Morris Book of Classic Nursery Rhymes - Hardcover

by **Jackie Morris** (Illustrator)

A wonderfully illustrated and sumptuous collection of nursery rhymes for all ages, including many favorite rhymes as well as some that will be a delightful discovery. Originally published as _The Cat and the Fiddle_ in 2011, this edition includes a new introduction by Jackie Morris--a spirited defense of the nursery rhyme, which she fears is in danger of being forgotten in a digital world. The beautiful and detailed watercolor paintings combine with more than 40 rhymes to make this a unique treasury and lifetime possession for children and adults of all ages.

### Author Biography

**Jackie Morris**'s fame has risen to new heights with the the immense success of _The Lost Words_ (with Robert Macfarlane), for which she won the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal in 2019. An author as well as an artist, she still owns a well-thumbed and well-loved collection of nursery rhymes from her own childhood, and is a strong believer in their value for extending children's sense of wonder and pleasure in words. _Mrs Noah's Pockets_ (with James Mayhew) was longlisted for the Kate Greenaway Award and a White Ravens choice for Best International Picture Book.
