The measurements of the book are approx. 7 by 7. The book is at least 90 pages; it was pretty thick. The illustrations are very bright and vibrant and have been described as &#8220;retro kitsch&#8221; similar to Virginia Parsons illustrations. The rhymes are the original English versions. For example, instead of &#8220;Ring-around-the rosie&#8221; it reads Ring-a-ring o&#8217;roses&#8221;. If you do a google image search for &#8220;retro kitsch&#8221; and &#8220;nursery rhyme&#8221; you will see a woman selling pages from the book on Etsy. i have contacted her and she claims to have no information about the book itself. There may have been some fairy tales mixed in with the rhymes, not sure if I am remembering that correctly. I beleive there was some red on the cover. It was a hardcover book and the pages have a matte finish. Thank you for your help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am looking for a nursery rhyme picture book that I had in the mid to late 1980&#8217;s.
