Rawlyk Library, Crandall University, produced from scans generously made available by the Internet Archive. "Sing-song : A nursery rhyme book by Christina Georgina Rossetti" is a collection of children’s poetry written in the Victorian era. It gathers nursery rhymes and lullabies that celebrate early childhood and family life, with a focus on nature, seasons, animals, and simple moral lessons. The book interweaves cradle songs, play songs, riddles, counting and calendar verses, and color and nature lists. Scenes of mothers, babies, and village life sit beside vivid sketches of flowers, birds, insects, and weather, while gentle counsel—kindness to creatures, patience in work, hope amid hardship—runs throughout. Imaginative pieces personify wind, moon, and stars; playful ones feature cats, dogs, lambs, and mice; and solemn notes touch on poverty, loss, and comfort (a dead thrush, a sleeping child, angels watching). Its brief, musical poems use clear images and refrains to soothe, delight, and quietly teach young listeners. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
