Mother Goose is credited with authoring hundreds of children's stories that have been passed down through many generations, though the actual identity of the person who came up with these beloved rhymes and songs remains a mystery. Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose collection in France in 1697; its popularity was such that in 1729 an English language edition became available , and by 1786 it appeared in the United States.
