Children have always responded to these classic fables being captured by the perennial fight between good and evil and identifying with the timeless characters involved in the stories. This enchanting collection of classic fairy tales brings together a whole host of well-known characters.
There are many theories about who Mother Goose was. One theory is that she was Queen Sheba of the Biblical times. Another suggests that she was Queen Bertha, the mother of Charlemagne, the great medieval military leader. She was nicknamed "Queen Goose-Foot" or "Goose-Footed Bertha." Yet another theory suggests that the original Mother Goose was a woman named Elizabeth Goose, who lived in colonial Boston.
