Did Neddy Noodle Nip His Neighbour's Nutmegs? Tongue-twisters are one tiny part of lona and Peter Opie 's life's work. Tireless researchers into the literature and traditions of childhood, they talk to Paul Vaughan about their recent discoveries in the world of early picture-books, fairy-tales, playground songs and crazes, and invite him into their temple, which houses amongst bagatelles, yo-yos and a zoetrope, the first Christmas card.
