Complete! Beatrix Potter had a lifetime fascination with rhymes. After the release of her 1902 book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, she created a small collection of illustrations and rhymes, and eventually, in 1917, her nursery rhyme concept book was published and called Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes. This delightful adaptation for the crewel enthusiast by Erica Wilson is from the The Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse Illustrations and is the Timmy Willy character. Be sure to see the other pieces in this series!

YOU know the old woman

who lived in a shoe?

And had so many children

She didn't know what to do?
