Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes is a collection of nursery rhymes written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter, and published by Frederick Warne & Co. in October 1917. Potter had a lifelong fascination with rhymes, and proposed a book of short verses called "Appley Dapply" to Warne following the release of "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" in 1902. Warne preferred Potter's original fantasies to her derivative work, and gave "Appley Dapply" little encouragement. The book was set aside in favour of other projects.
