Sister Goose: Feminist Nursery Rhymes and Cautionary Tales

Karen Andrews, a human rights activist, was with the Toronto Public Library.

Sister Goose is a small collection of satiric modern verses based upon the traditional nursery rhymes of Sister Goose’s maternal ancestor, Mother Goose. The book also includes several tales that caution against the most common pratfalls of today’s progressive movement.

This delightful little book is by Dorothy O’Connell, a long-time tenant and low-income activist; as its publishers suggest, it is recommended for adults and other advanced children.
