Summary: Educational and Entertaining
Comment: My son and I checked this book out from the library when he was about 2 1/2, and he loved it! I did, too. In addition to being fun and clever, with delightful illustrations, the book was a great launching point for further discussions in three areas. First, the word play offers lots of chances for parents to begin explaining jokes, cliches and puns. (And I appreciated that the humor was engaging on both child and adult levels!) Second, the involvement of other Mother Goose characters is a natural lead-in to further reading. In fact, after reading "And the Dish Ran Away with the Spoon," we returned to the library for a good Mother Goose collection and went through it looking for now-familiar characters. And third, it is a great way to introduce map-reading skills. My son pretended to draw and read maps after reading this book, and he now understands that miles and directions (north, south, east and west) are ways of expressing where things are.

Summary: Loved This Book!!!
Comment: My 5 year old son brought this book home from the school library. We read it that night and I couldn't put it down. What a fresh, new way to look at some very well read nursery rhymes! The illustrations were colorful and creative. Also, the way they intertwined the nursery tales allowed me to pull out even more stories to read to my son. It was engaging for him and entertaining for me. I have already given this as a gift to friends. Thank you, Janet and Susan, for creating such a wonderful place for my son's imagination to wander.
