But his grandma was in town,
So he doubled up into a wheel
And rolled himself down."

Who has written such volumes of stuff!

"Mother Goose is the best primer. No matter if the rhymes be
nonsense verses; many a poet might learn the lesson of good
versification from them, and the child in repeating them is
acquiring the accent of emphasis and of rhythmical
form."--_Preface._

Rhymes of Real Children.
Illustrated by Jessie Willcox Smith.
Duffield. 1.50
These verses are written from the child's point of view, and are
