The Old Nurse's Stocking-Basket

'Children,' said the Old Nurse, 'stop quarrelling, or you know what,' and the children always stopped quarrelling at once, for none of them wanted to miss her captivating bedtime tales about the little princes and princesses, sea captains' and peasants' sons and daughters she had known in her hundreds and hundreds of years as a children's nurse...' It is a beautiful new illustrated edition of this classic bed-time story, by the much-loved Eleanor Farjeon.
