I am delighted to hear this. After much searching, last year I tracked down used copies of two of my daughter's favorites, Father Fox and also Tan Koide's May We Sleep Here Tonight? And now both are being re-issued! Dilly dilly Piccalilli!

Jean Hildreth asked: "One final mention: is anyone else seeking some of Clyde and Wendy Watson's early works such as "Catch Me and Kiss Me and Say It Again", or "Father = Fox's Pennyrhymes"? For anyone seeking a fresh new take on the nursery rhyme genre, these are magnificent, and a great delight to little ones whose ears are ever-open to the musical lilt of their language and rhyme. At last search, they were out of print, though I do see evidence of new work by these remarkable siblings."
Good news: We will be reissuing FATHER FOX'S PENNYRHYMES on the Fall 2001 HarperCollins list.
