WHO WAS MOTHER GOOSE?

Contrary to popular belief, Mother Goose was neither a mother nor a goose. So who was she? Well, according to most historians, the author of hundreds of iconic nursery rhymes and fairy tales was not a real person, but rather many people, both men and women, who handed down their rhymes and fairy tales in the form of folk tales for generations. The first publication of these folk tales dates back to 1697 when Charles Perrault published a book in France called Tales From My Mother Goose. It became very popular in France and was translated into English in 1729. There have, of course, been many Mother Goose books published over the years. This book is an enhanced recreation of The Real Mother Goose, published by Rand McNally in 1916 and includes the original charming illustrations of Blanche Fisher Wright. You will no doubt recognize many of the 59 Mother Goose rhymes in this book from your own childhood. It now becomes your duty to pass them on to your children so that someday they can pass them on as well.
