Joyce Grenfell's Nursery School sketches are perennial favourites in her repertory and have entertained millions.Here they appear in print for the first time,and are just as funny on the page as they are in performance. They exactly catch the bright, bluffingly calm,and occasionally desperate way in which teachers talk to small children.Added to these six monologues is a devastating self-revelation by a Writer of Children's Books. John Ward,R.A.,is well known as the illustrator of 'Cider With Rosie' (1959).His deceptively casual pictures capture the mingled innocence and ferocity of children and beautifully point up the humour of the words.
