Ólafia L. Óla's
Favourite Traditional Nursery Rhymes
(Illustrated)

Book cover

This is a large-print paperback with edge-to-edge colour. The ebook is free or almost free. A PDF with illustrations from classic rhymes books is also available.

The political correctness pandemic has caused many nursery rhymes to be rewritten or eliminated altogether. This illustrated children's book has 50 popular English nursery rhymes in their traditional form.

These songs have stood the test of time and this FULL-COLOUR LARGE-PRINT book makes it easy for kids to learn them.

Bonus content includes a few Aesop's fables, jokes and word ladder puzzles from my other books.

Notes

Pages: 44 (40 with real content)
Full-colour paperback: Yes (edge-to-edge colour, large fonts)
Published in: January 2021
Alternate free full PDF ebook: If you cannot buy the paperback, you can download this free PDF ebook that I had assembled using the same rhymes but with images from Our Old Nursery Rhymes (1911), Real Mother Goose (1916) and Denslow's Mother Goose (1901). These books were popular for several decades but seem to be forgotten now.

Tunes: Please remember that kids need to sing the nursery rhymes using traditional tunes. Many publishers compose new tunes that extinguish their old glory. To be sure, download and listen to the songs in this Librivox recording. You do not have to sing exactly like the sisters in the recording but just ensure that you do not deviate too much.

Books by V. Subhash

Hi! Starting in 2020, I have written and illustrated over two dozen mostly non-fiction books. See if any of them interests you. (My books for children are published under the pseudonym Ólafia L. Óla.) These books are available at Amazon (USA, India, UK, Australia and Canada), Barnes & Noble (USA) and BooksWagon.com (India). BookDepository.com (UK) sources from Amazon UK and has the cheapest prices. It does not charge extra for international shipping.

Android apps by V. Subhash

These apps are free and have no annoying features such as a tracking, advertising or registration prompts. These apps support Android version 2.1 to the latest. Even though the Android installer says that these apps are built for an old version (backward compatibility is important), they will run in the latest version and are fully functional. It is just FUD. (Subhash Browser has some features that are only available in the Pro version. Even then, it is the most feature-rich Android browser ever created.)
