Book Description
The Mother Goose Letters comprises the annotated correspondence between Mother Goose and her cohorts in Britain concerning migration to the Canadian Prairies. The letters reveal both her attempts to wheedle her fellow nursery rhyme characters to settle in the Prairies with her and their mixed responses to her plans. Responding to a cease and desist command from No. 10 Downing St., M. Goose categorically makes her case for the out-migration and re-migration of her stories. She supposes they will continue to live if she gives them leave to change as time, place, and experience dictate. She is, after all, a runaway Mother Goose. In print for the first time, The Mother Goose Letters presents scrupulously collated research in the form of hitherto unseen letters and previously unknown revisions of the best-known Mother Goose nursery rhymes and fairy tales. These collected works are used as the framework whereby a story of modern day immigration can be told.

Book Description
A nursery rhyme is a traditional poem or song for children in Britain and many other countries, but usage of the term only dates from the late 18th/early 19th century. The term Mother Goose rhymes is interchangeable with nursery rhymes. From the mid-16th century nursery rhymes begin to be recorded in English plays, and most popular rhymes date from the 17th and 18th centuries.The first English collections, Tommy Thumb's Song Book and a sequel, Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book, were published by Mary Cooper in 1744. Publisher John Newbery's stepson, Thomas Carnan, was the first to use the term Mother Goose for nursery rhymes when he published a compilation of English rhymes, Mother Goose's Melody, or, Sonnets for the Cradle (London, 1780). Nursery Rhymes: Most nursery rhymes date from the 16th, most frequently, and, 17th, the 18th centuries. Apparently most were originally composed for adult entertainment. Many were popular ballads and songs. "The frog who'd a wooing go" first appeared in 1580 as A Moste Strange weddinge of the mowse as well as the ffrogge. Why do nursery rhymes reflect important historical facts? Most of these songs were part of an oral based society that relayed news, spread coded rumors about authority figures, and worked out its moral dilemmas (for kids and adults) in song and rhyme. What was the original nursery rhyme in history? Ten Oldest Nursery Rhymes in the English Language - Oldest.org 1. Ding Dong Bell. Ding Dong Bell is actually probably the oldest recorded nursery rhyme in the English language. In probably the earliest version of this rhyme, recorded in 1580 by John Lange, the organist of Winchester Cathedral, the unfortunate cat doesn't make it out of the well, and the bells are actually a death knell.
