Description

Originally published in 1924. An unusual and entertaining book of poems and plays specially written and designed for child participation. Each one contains a list of characters, ideas for costumes, a script for the reader and advice on performance and tableaux. The illustrated contents include: Bluebeard in Verse - Briar Rose - Jack and the Beanstalk - The Giant's Shoe - Little Jack Horner - Tom Goes to London - Babes in the Wood - Mary's Magic - What Happened to the Tarts etc. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
