This book 'Mother Hubbard Her Picture Book' is one of many of
Walter Crane's 'Toy Books', it contains the stories, Mother
Hubbard, The Three Bears and The Absurd ABC. Many of the earliest
children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and
before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook
Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable,
high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork
so these works can delight another generation of children. Walter
Crane (1845-1915) was one of the earliest contributors to
children's literature and one of the most influential illustrators
in the development of children's colour picture books. Crane began
working for Edmund Evans in 1864 producing bright, colourful books
which revolutionised the type of children's books available. He
created a series of 'Toy Books' between 1865-1875 which contained
fairy stories, nursery rhymes and other tales of adventures. His
Arts and Crafts illustrations came to typify children's books for
decades to come.
