Ride a Cock Horse by Mervyn Peake
This elegantly produced collection of classic nursery rhymes is accompanied by richly imaginative drawings by Mervyn Peake. First published in 1940, and now reissued for the first time, this is a charming children's gift book that will also be sought after by enthusiasts for the work of the inimitable Peake.
Mervyn Peake (1911 - 1968) was one of the most important British novelists of the late twentieth century. Although best known for his Gormenghast trilogy, he was also widely admired for his work as an artist and illustrator, including his work on Grimm's Household Tales, which was republished by the British Library in 2012.
