There are (at least?) two more rolls in the series, both beautifully
illustrated with good performances.  Not only are some of the words
different from those I learnt as a kid, but also some of the tunes.  "Baa
Baa Black Sheep" (not to be confused with "Hello Dolly" :>) has a rather
nice tune that harmonises with the well-known melody.
