    About this ebook

    The Only True Mother Goose Melodies is a collection of sweet and short songs and ditties, melodies. Many people imagine that Mother Goose is a myth. In contrast, many believe that Mother Goose was a true personality who was born and lived for many years in Boston, where many of her descendants may now be present. Excerpt from The Only True Mother Goose Melodies "My dear little Blossoms, there are now in this world, and always will be, a great many grannies besides myself, both in petticoats and pantaloons, some a deal younger to be sure; but all monstrous wise, and of my own family name. These old women, who never had chick nor child of their own, but who always know how to bring up other people's children, will tell you with very long faces, that my enchanting, quieting, soothing volume, my all-sufficient anodyne for cross, peevish, won't-be-comforted little bairns, ought to be laid aside for more learned books, such as they could select and publish."
