Green Tigers Mother Goose Book
The nursery rhymes which we attribute to a mythical Mother Goose are the anonymous poems which have survived hundreds of years because of their popularity with small children, and the ease with which they can be memorized. We have illustrated each rhyme with favorite pictures from our huge library of nursery rhyme books. We believe this edition is one of the most remarkable ever made from this still vital body of poetry.

Green tigers illustrated ABC Book
Our alphabet, like our very popular Mother Goose book, draws upon our library of old children's books to create a new book more various than any other ABC. For each letter we show five different illustrations from five different antique alphabets. We used more than one hundred different books for this project, and believe our volume will delight the child who learns from it and stimulate the adults with its variety and historical perspective.

Night Before Christmas
We have more than fifty versions of this wonderful poem in our library; this is one of our favorites. Margaret Evans Price has a gentle talent. The Santa Claus on the cover, and throughout, is one of the kindest, least threatening Santas ever imagined. Notice how his knees are slightly bent by the weight of his pack. See his big and prominent boots. This is a Santa who is appealingly earth bound. This is a facsimile of the 1917 edition. We have die-cut it, as in the original, and the rounded top makes it especially appealing. This is an ideal first Night before Christmas for a young child.

Hansel and Gretal
Hansel and Gretel is one of the Grimm Brother’s best-loved fairy tales. It tells the story of two siblings who brave a night in the dark woods and cleverly defeat a witch who lives in an appealing gingerbread house. Margaret Evans Price (1888-1973) was a prolific American illustrator of fairy tales and children’s stories. Her gentle and archetypal style achieves the right balance between the sweetness of the children and the scariness of the witch.

Red Riding hood
This facsimile, dating from about 1910, is a gentle rendering of this cautionary tale.
