Mother Goose flies way down south in this Southern take on popular
nursery rhymes. The twang in these poems adapted from the verses we
all know and love will have readers donning their NASCAR caps and
listening to the ole' banjo in no time. Young'uns will encounter
the tales of Old Mother Hubbard pulling cornbread from her cupboard
and her hound that turns down biscuits. They'll meet a Mississippi
mosquito that munches on grits and fried green tomatoes and learn
why Yankee Doodle trades his pony for a pickup. Also featured in
this collection are the crawfish who "rub-a-dub-dub" in their tub
and Little Boy Bluegrass who changes locale. Whether reading one or
all, this set of forty-six beloved rhymes oozes with Southern
charm. ABOUT THE AUTHOR A humorist, cartoonist, speaker, and
