First published in 1897, “Mother Goose in Prose” is a collection of twenty-two children's stories based on Mother Goose nursery rhymes. It was the first children's book written by American author L. Frank Baum, best known for “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” and its sequels.

“Mother Goose in Prose” opens with an introduction by Baum that traces the history of Mother Goose. The book's last selection features a girl named Dorothy who can talk to animals—an anticipation of the Oz books.
