Description

"Early to bed and early to rise: If that would make me wealthy and wise I'd rise at daybreak, cold or hot, And go back to bed at once. Why not?" -Mary Mapes Dodge, Rhymes and Jingles (1874) Rhymes and Jingles (1874) by Mary Mapes Dodge contains 200 poems written to delight children. Ten of these follow a traditional format, but the majority are quite short and were written as "garden songs," a genre of verses that are intended to be set to music. They are also accompanied by line drawings. When it appeared, the book was so popular that it was often compared favorably to the author's more famous work, Hans Brinker.
