This captivating collection is a condensed board book version of Mother Goose: A Sampler, first published in 1996 for the benefit of the Parent-Child Mother Goose Program, which uses Mother Goose rhymes to support parenting. Sixteen children’s illustrators donated artwork to the original collection; each was given free rein to respond to these age-old rhymes, with wonderful results. Artists include Kim LaFave, Philippe Béha, Barbara Reid, Mark Thuman, Gary Clement, Marie-Louise Gay, and Norman Cousineau interpreting such timeless favorites as “The Man in the Moon,” “Hey Diddle Diddle,” “The Moon Is Round,” “Over in the Meadow in the Sand in the Sun,” and others.

Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
In this abbreviated, board book edition of Mother Goose: A Canadian Sampler (1994), this square, sturdy title includes 16 rhymes, each one with a double-page spread featuring work by a different artist. Some of the verses are well known, including “Over in the Meadow,” “Hey Diddle Diddle,” and “I Had a Little Nut Tree.” Most of the artists, though, are new to an American audience, and they have chosen rhymes that are not part of most popular U.S. collections. The wide range of moods—playful, sweet, stormy—and media, from line-and-watercolor to collage, will delight young children, who will choose their favorites to point to and act out many times over. In its new format, this enjoyable collection will weather many lapsit readings. Preschool. --Hazel Rochman
