With the subtitle Les Contes de ma Mère l'Oie (Tales of my Mother Goose), the collection quickly gained popularity all over France. By 1729, Perrault's collection had been translated into English, in the form of Robert Samber's Histories or Tales of Past Times, Told by Mother Goose. Samber's volume was eventually republished in 1786 and brought to the U.S. English publisher of children's literature John Newbery later focused on the nursery rhymes, publishing Mother Goose's Melody, or, Sonnets for the Cradle, which helped Mother Goose become further associated with children's poetry" (Poetry Foundation) .
