Review


"Brian Wildsmith's now standard Mother Goose...is as timeless as Goose herself."--Austin American Statesman


"A sprightly collection."--Publishers Weekly


"The bright swatches of watercolor on every page will delight adults as much as children. Every image is filled with extravagant whimsey and humor...wonderful."--Springfield Sunday Republican


"The artist's unconventional yet sophisticated illustrations [are] filled with luminescent color." --The Horn Book

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, November 12, 2000
This review is from: Mother Goose: A Collection of Nursery Rhymes (Paperback)
I am a great fan of Brian Wildsmith's art, however, this book is not at all up to his usual standards (though my 2 year old son likes it). Furthermore, the nursery rhymes include a number of macabre and violent ones, which I would rather not subject my son to.
