Summary | "The Tailor and the Crow: An Old Rhyme with New Drawings by L. Leslie Brooke" is a children's illustrated poem published in the early 20th century. The book presents a playful take on a traditional rhyme, bringing it to life with fresh illustrations that enhance its whimsical nature. The central topic revolves around a tailor, his failed attempt to shoot a crow, and the comedic consequence of his actions. In the poem, a tailor is watched by a carrion crow as he shapes a cloak. The tailor, seeking to shoot the crow, ends up mistakenly injuring his own sow instead. This humorous twist leads to a lighthearted narrative where the tailor's mishap prompts a call for brandy to revive the wounded animal. The rhyme carries a jovial and rhythmic cadence, making it appealing for young readers, while the illustrations complement the text, inviting children into a lively storytelling experience.
