311K: Poems and Nursery Rhymes

I had a wonderful children’s book (maybe from the 40’s??)
Hard cover, lighter green embossed cover. Larger dimensions than a regular book.
It was not very thick (maybe an inch or two??)
It was filled with fables, short stories, poems and nursery rhymes
I remember It included “Pandora’s box”, a poem about “who loved mother best” and “the land of counterpane” among many others
I lost it many years ago.
I would do love to know what it was called do I might try to find it again...

    A Child’s Garden of Versus is by Robert Louis Stevenson, and includes the poem with the land of counterpane.

    “The Illustrated Treasury of Children’s Literature” edited by Margaret E. Martignoni, 1955. Definitely has “The Land of Counterpane” and “Pandora.” 512 pages.
