Linda Lerner has approached the Nursery Rhyme from a 21st century position and interpreted them through poetry in a whole new way! Along with the illustrations by artist Donna Kerness, Lerner unleashes a new twist on the old, worn-out stories of humpty dumpty, the pussy in the well, Rip Van Winkle, Jack Be Nimble, Friday’s Child, Ring Around the Rosy, and London Bridge Is Falling Down. It’s a modern take on the ancients.
