The Rooster Crows a Book of American Rhymes by Maud and Miska Petersham


'The Rooster Crows a Book of American Rhymes' by Maud and
Miska Petersham are rhymes and limericks from North America and mostly the United States. It's interesting that Maud and Miska are noted as authors when they did not write any part of this book.

In any case, if you were hoping for a lesson in history your hope will be lost as this book is just a collection with no background or context. I honestly was left wanting more from this book than what I got. Then again, I'm not a child, and a child may be satisfied with the text. 

Who should read this book? The easily amused. 

Book read: 84 of 5000
