This beautiful hardcover 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.

Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, and European-style half-round spines.
