Description: George - Don't Do That ..... six Nursery School Sketches and 'Writer of Children's books' by JOYCE GRENFELL illustrated by JOHN WARD 1977 First published 1977 by Macmillan London Limited 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 or Cider With Rosie. His deceptively casual pictures capture the mingled innocence and ferocity of children and beautifully point up the humour of the words. Mrs. Grenfell's foreword describes how they came to be written. The book is in very good condition
