The poem itself has an engaging structure—the rhythm of the lines and rhymes changing to mimic a steam locomotive warming up and starting to pull a train: slowly at first but with a gathering pace until it is thundering down the track. It’s only minor issues but enough for me to rate this less than 5 (though the original tales still get a 5). My knowledge of Polish was, and is, minimal – but I got the general drift that “what it was about”, was a charming agglomerative nonsense-verse for kids.

Viewing these pictures as a child triggered the earliest such anomalous memories that I can remember. The book I remember reading was illustrated by a different person, Jan Marcin Szancer, which I did prefer as they were a little more colourful and the turnip looked huge, but this book I’m reviewing has been illustrated by the original illustrators all the way back in 1937!
