Description

The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes. Edited by Iona and Peter Opie. The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes brings together over 500 well-loved and lesser-known nursery rhymes, songs, jingles, and lullabies traditionally handed on to young children. Each rhyme is accompanied by fascinating and detailed notes on its history: its origins and development, literary associations, social and even political uses, variations, and parallels in other languages. The result is a unique guide to our most fundamental, memorable, and delightful cultural heritage. The book has medium general wear with curling on the covers and page edge folding but overall a tight and bright copy.
