PRAISE FOR OUR BOOKS
"Myth-busting!"
Both books are so scholarly and yet very readable. What a detective you are. So myth-busting! I loved the illustrations - delicate and magical. The second book's vision for a national nursery rhyme centre is inspiring and seems to me essential if we are to keep our rich heritage of nursery rhymes alive.

"Brilliant dish"
We can discover so much tasty flavour and meaning when we crack into the apparently simple yolk of a nursery rhyme, and Tim Devlin's book serves up the dish brilliantly - poached, boiled and fried.

"Marvellous"
I have just finished reading your marvellous book and I can't tell you how impressed I am by it. The research must have been enormous, but you write with such elegance and ease, and with such profound understanding of your subject. Really, it is an outstanding work (wonderfully supported by those brilliant illustrations), and like nothing else I have ever read.
