Here''s a treat for young Mother Goose fans who are ready for something new.

Short, catchy verses, collected here in picture book form for the first time, will delight readers and listeners with their gentle absurdity. Katja Bandlow''s illustrations depict the silly folk with whimsy and good cheer.

It was a fairy cat, you see, and so you would rather expect it to be different, wouldn''t you? It had a violet nose, indigo eyes, pale blue ears, green front legs, a yellow body, orange back legs and a red tail. In fact, it was coloured with all the colours of the rainbow, and on that account it was known as the Rainbow Cat.It lived, of course, in Fairyland, and it had all sorts of strange adventures. I am going to tell you some of them, and I think you will agree with me that it really had a very thrilling time, one way or another." - an excerpt from ''The Rainbow Cat'' by Rose Fyleman.
