Description
"The mood is insouciant glee. A treasure." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." That's what children chant when they are being teased; it's what their parents chanted, and their grandparents and their great-grandparents before them. Collected in this invaluable book are the wit and wisdom of generations of schoolchildren -- more than one hundred and seventy rhymes ranging from insults and riddles to tongue twisters, jeers, and jump-rope rhymes. With Iona Opie's introduction and detailed notes and Maurice Sendak's remarkable pictures -- vignettes, sequences, and full-page paintings both wickedly funny and comically sad -- here is a book that deserves a place among the classic texts of childhood.
