Spiders In African Children's Stories, Dorothy Bowen

Dorothy N. Bowen

The first literature that many American children come into contact with consists of Mother Goose rhymes. One of the very familiar ones is "Little Miss Muffet."Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey;When along came a spider, who sat down beside her, And frightened Miss Muffetaway.
