I have visited many libraries, bookstores, and have even purchased a "traditional" mother goose book (Green Tiger's Mother Goose) to avoid the amateur cartoonish illustrations in many mother goose books today. All have disappointed me except for this one and Sylvia Long's Mother Goose. I didn't go with Long's version because she substitutes all characters with animals although it is one of the best I've seen. I just wish this book was a full version rather than just a sampler. The various artists add variety and the illustrations were geniunely funny and superbly creative. I highly recommend this book because of the illustrations.
