Review

The nursery rhymes in this board book were previously published in one of two collections edited by Opie and illustrated by Wells. Lap sitting toddlers will recognize many characters they know from Well's series children's books. Felix, Max, Ruby, and Mother Goose herself make cameo appearance in this colorful rendition of traditional nursery rhymes. While the emphasis of this collection is numbers there are a couple less known rhymes included.

With typical Rosemary Wells's illustration this colorful book will be enjoyed by toddlers and their caregivers. Perfect baby shower or new baby gift. The cover reminds me of the Little Golden Books of yesterday years.

Overall Book Score: good
