Not quite as good as Mother Goose by this same illustrator
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I am hooked on Clare Beaton -- her illustrations are dynamite! But this book is not as much fun as the Mother Goose she did -- I was hoping for fewer finger-play rhymes (like itsy-bitsy spider) and more London Bridge-type rhymes. Just childhood sing-song would have pleased me better. However, the illustrations are out of this world. You really can't go wrong with this book. And if finger play is your thing, then this is your book for sure.
Interactive fun with your little one!

We're big fans of all of Clare Beaton's Barefoot books - in particular, Playtime Rhymes for Little People and Mother Goose. It's too bad this book appears to be out of print or unavailable. Beautiful embroidery and illustrations accompany favorite - and new - kiddie rhymes and counting songs. I wish this came with a CD as well! We've been reading it to our toddler since she was 8 months old, and she will probably be able to enjoy it for a long time.
