| Summary |
"WEE WEE SONGS FOR OUR LITTLE PETS" by Leila Lee is a collection of children's poetry likely written in the mid-19th century. This work is designed specifically for young readers, featuring simple, engaging verses that explore themes of childhood, morality, and the beauty of nature, while promoting values such as kindness and obedience. The poems feature young characters interacting with their surroundings, including family pets, nature, and moral lessons. The opening of the collection introduces us to the poem "Mother Goose," where a dialogue takes place between a child named Sue and her mother regarding nursery rhymes and their appropriateness for young children. Sue expresses her concern about the silliness of these rhymes, leading her mother to suggest they look for more meaningful alternatives that provide sweet and true thoughts to nurture little Willy. This exchange effectively sets the tone for the collection, suggesting a focus on introducing children to wholesome literature that combines fun and moral education.
