5.0 out of 5 stars nursery rhyme book
Purchase of the Oxford Nursery Rhyme book was the totally professional experience I've come to expect of Amazon-sponsored merchandise. The book was in pristine condition, the price was great, the packaging excellent, and the shipping interval was quite short, especially since the book was shipped from the UK. I will definitely buy from this vendor again.

3.0 out of 5 stars For teachers not children
This book has the most wonderful traditional verses and the traditional woodcuts are fascinating. It also has descriptions of hand movements and other traditional actions that accompany the rhymes. A wonderful resource for a teacher or educator. If you are, however, buying the book for a child, this book is not suitable. The texts written in a small font are crowded...

This book has the most wonderful traditional verses and the traditional woodcuts are fascinating. It also has descriptions of hand movements and other traditional actions that accompany the rhymes. A wonderful resource for a teacher or educator. If you are, however, buying the book for a child, this book is not suitable. The texts written in a small font are crowded together and the illustrations are tiny.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Oxford Nursery Rhyme Book (Hardcover)
If you're looking for a book containing nursery rhymes outside of the norm, this book is for you. If you're not, don't buy this book. There are rhymes in here that I have never heard of. It is an interesting read, but not the classical children's nursery rhyme book I had in mind. The illustrations are in black and white and are very classical and old fashioned.
