A ROCKET IN MY POCKET

Tops in its field, this is engaging nonsense, in chants, jingles, riddles, tongue twisters, calls, cries, count-out rhymes, jumping rope rhymes -- the folklore that American children of today know from American children of yesterday. This handsome book is a by-product of a large research project, much of it done in field work in city streets and rural communities.
