Description The second three spreads of an altered book. Source material is Children's Hour with Mother Goose Rhymes, 1922, illustrated by Lois Lenski.

Ink and collage. Each spread about 23 x 14 cm.

Top: Jack and Jill
Middle: Goosey, Goosey Gander and Handy-Spandy, Jack-a-Dandy
Bottom: Tom, Tom, the Piper's Son and Doctor Faustus

I will probably elide words from Doctor Faustus in the future, but it is so strange I wanted to present it unaltered first.

thank you so much, kat! i admit, these are fun - i stare at the pages for days, and then - i begin to see what to do.
