Nursery Rhyme Comics, out October 11th from First Second, features fifty classic nursery rhymes illustrated in comics form by fifty of today’s preeminent cartoonists and illustrators.
Tor.com will be hosting one nursery rhyme a day up to the release date, including entries from Kate Beaton, Mike Mignola, Tony Millionaire, Craig Thompson, and more.
Each rhyme is one to three pages long, and simply paneled and lettered to ensure that the experience is completely accessible for the youngest of readers.
Today: “Rub-A-Dub-Dub” by Tony Millionaire
I have always found this version of the rhyme (ostensibly the earliest) to be completely confounding. Wonderfully illustrated regardless!
