Three Blind Mice. Old King Cole. Peter, Peter, Pumpkin-Eater. All nursery rhymes recollected from childhood.

Join me Thursday morning on WPRB for music inspired by these and more – the children’s books “Peter Pan,” “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” and “Higglety Pigglety Pop!” and fairy tales of Charles Perrault, Hans Christian Andersen, and the Brothers Grimm – as we salute the contributions of Mother, in advance of Mother’s Day.

We’ll find lots of sense in nonsense, this Thursday morning from 6 to 11 EDT, on WPRB and wprb.com. When I was a child, I understood as a child – and I still do, thanks to Mom, on Classic Ross Amico.
