I read this book over and over to my children. It has every nursery rhyme imaginable in it and many pictures to complement the rhymes. My oldest son memorized many of the nursery rhymes in it. According to many children's literature experts in child development programs that I've attended for college classes to be a preschool teacher, nursery rhymes are an excellent teaching tool for language development; one that needs to be used more. I bought this same book for my grandson and intend to use this one for teaching preschool. I was overjoyed to get this product in great condition for a used book.
I love the Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes! They bring back pleasant childhood memories of my Mother reading them to me as well as singing them to me. There are many rhymes included in this collection as well as vibrant pictures depicting the rhymes. I am a doll collector and I wanted some old books to display with my dolls. When I saw this book, I had forgotten over my adult years about the precious memories of childhood. I wish I had a copy when my girls were little so I could have shared the rhymes with them. But, now I will have a copy to share with my future grandchildren as well as a beautiful display piece to display with my dolls.
I purchased this book for my grandson. Our family had an older version of this book that we read to our children and wanted to pass along these wonderful vignettes to the next generation. As an educator I feel that the more you read to your children when they are young the more likely that child will read when they are in school and beyond. These vignettes are short enough to capture the child's attention and the colorful pictures also give a wonderful avenue for you, the reader, to enhance their vocabulary as you describe what the child is seeing. My mother read Mother Goose stories to me when I was a child, I read Mother Goose to my children, and now these same stories will be shared with my grandchildren.
Traditional classic book, read to my two children when they were young, content is fantastic. Book was listed as used, slightly beat up corners, but the material is in place, therefore I will keep. Thank-you.

I had this book when I was a little girl. It is filled with nursery rhymes both new (at the time) and old. There are hundreds with beautiful pictures and the index is very helpful. I remember having favorites and my mom let me use a pencil to underline the ones I wanted read every night. It is the greatest book for bedtime story-time because you can switch it up and read it every night. I suggest getting this book for your children, grandchildren and even just to read yourself!
