Of course you know the "Little Miss Muffet" nursery rhyme, right? Sitting on a tuffet? Eating curds? The spider? Sure, that one. But, did you know Miss Muffet, who apparently never had a first name, held a Christmas party when her parents went next door to visit? She did! And, this 1902 book tells about that party and the people and animals that came! There are too many to list, but they include Cinderella, Alice and many Wonderland characters, Alladin, Gulliver, Tom Sawyer, Humpty Dumpty, and many, many more. You'll just have to read the book to see them all.
This edition of the book contains all 51 original illustrations, by Olive M. Long, rejuvenated.
