A Favorite

We've checked this out from the library at least 5 times. My 3-year-old loves it. It's a great collection of classic nursery rhymes. Fun illustrations and well-organized.

Great Book

There is just about every rhyme I remember from being a child in this book. They are easy to read and the illustrations only add to the text. The illustrations are cute and charming and are not too garish in color or drawing. I particularly like that the directions for doing the finger plays are not intermixed with the rhyme itself- so you can just read the rhyme and enjoy it without trying to do the finger part if you so desire. Very enjoyable.

This book provides hours of fun!

These are EASY rhymes for toddlers to memorize! They are FUN and provide hours of enjoyment. IT is my 2 year old daughters favorite bedtime book.
