From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1-- This vibrant, joyous collection of familiar and beloved nursery rhymes is certain to be solid competition for the many fine books of this genre on today's market. The childlike tempra artwork is irresistible in its bright boldness and immediately captures attention. Each cleanly formatted page contains at least one rhyme (two if they are brief). Longer rhymes, such as "This is the House that Jack Built," jump across a double-page spread. The text is sensibly placed in generous white spacing. The end product is creativeness at its best. Children will grab it with delight and beg, "Read to me, please!" Young patrons and their teachers will be most happy to see the book on their library shelves--if it's ever there. --Mary Lou Budd, Milford South Elementary School, OH
