Summary | "Ride A Cock-Horse To Banbury Cross & A Farmer Went Trotting Upon His Grey Mare" by Randolph Caldecott is a charming collection of children's verse illustrated with engaging drawings, likely created in the late 19th century. The book primarily focuses on traditional nursery rhymes and simple storytelling through vibrant illustrations, reflecting the playful and whimsical nature of childhood. As part of R. Caldecott's Picture Books, it stands out for its delightful imagery that complements the lyrical content. The book features two well-known nursery rhymes: "Ride a Cock-Horse to Banbury Cross" and "A Farmer Went Trotting Upon His Grey Mare." The first rhyme tells the story of a fine lady riding a horse, adorned in rings and bells, eliciting music wherever she travels. The second rhyme captures a humorous scene of a farmer and his daughter enjoying a ride on a grey mare, only to be comically disrupted by a raven that causes their tumble. Through rhythmic verses and whimsical illustrations, Caldecott brings these beloved tales to life, making them delightful for both young readers and adults alike.
