This beautiful edition brings back into print Kate Greenaway's much-loved alphabet book, A Apple Pie, along with a selection of her illustrated nursery rhymes, in glorious full color.

In two of the finest illustrated children's books from the Arts and Crafts Movement, Greenaway's drawings conjure up a never-never land of rural simplicity and innocence—an escape from the squalor of Victorian cities—that is as delightful now as it was when these gems of children's literature first appeared in the 1880s.

Her imagination and artistry have given us some of the most memorable treasures of Victoriana, and have filled many a nineteenth-century heart with joy and love.” —Nancy Rosin, The Metropolitan Museum of Art
