5.0 out of 5 stars the best I've read, November 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Mother Goose: The Children's Classic Edition (Children's Classics) (Hardcover)

I have three really nice, big hardbound mother goose anthologies, but this is my favorite; contains the most popular of the mother goose nursery rhymes, has brightly colored pictures, but, most importantly, is user-friendly. It's thin and light, and when my son and I sat down for nursery rhymes (over and over and over!) this was the book that kept getting pulled off the shelf. I recommend it very very highly.

The book arrived really fast. The condition of the book was just as described. I love tis book and I can't wait to read it to my little baby when he/she comes home! The nursery rhymes in the book are the same ones that I learned when I was a kid and I'm excited to be able to read these rhymes to my baby!
