Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book is the second-oldest known collection of English nursery rhymes (after Tommy Thumb's Song Book). Its two extant copies are the oldest surviving physical books of nursery rhymes. It includes the first known versions of many popular English nursery rhymes.

Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book was published in May 1744 in London by Mary Cooper. It was originally a two-volume set, but the first volume is no longer extant.
