Although shes one of the most beloved characters in Western literature, Mother Goose's origins have seemed lost in the mists of time.

Others think she's related to mysterious goose-footed statues in old French churches called Queen Pedauque. This book delves deeply into the surviving evidence for Mother Goose's origins from her nursery rhymes and fairy tales as well as from relevant historical, mythological, and anthropological data.
