4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful March 16, 2011

By Steven R. McEvoy TOP 1000 REVIEWER

Format:Board book

This book is twelve pages of board book fun. It follows 6 different children as they play with their teddy bears and sing the well-known nursery rhyme to them. With great illustrations that convey much love and feeling, children of all ages will love this book and read it time and time again. Caroline Jane Church has authored or illustrated over 90 books; my children have loved all of them that we have read. This book is part of a new series based upon known nursery rhymes with the first two titles being The More We Get Together and You Are My Sunshine. With shiny metallic covers children are immediately attracted to the books. They are books young children in your life will love to have read to them and to learn to read with.

I got this for my daughter because we sing it every night before she goes to bed. The pictures are cute, and the board book is easy for her to handle.
