Summary: Great Books
Comment: I have two toddlers, and we have been reading both of these books at least twice a day for a year. My two year old has both books memorized and my one year old knows quite a few of the verses. I am also buying this for every expectant mother that I know. My husband wasn't fond of Mother Goose at first, but these books have turned him into a fan.

Summary: Delicious Goose!
Comment: Wow! ... is collection had ALL the Mother Goose Rhymes that I remembered, and then some! The oversized format and bold pictures, all featuring sweet and funny animals playing nursery rhyme roles, will visually delight both the lucky listeners and the grown-ups sharing this treasury! I have been buying this set for EVERY expectant mother I know, it's a great shower gift (especially combined with Jim Trelease's Read Aloud Handbook). I know I was so grateful to have a good Mother Goose collection when I was a new mommy, it's surprising how many you forget once you leave kindergarten. My son, who is now six, loves this book (I like that BOYS are made of sugar and spice and everything nice in this edition...I think a little liberty may have been taken there, but as a mom of a son, I won't argue!). I am grateful to the Opies and to Rosemary Wells for compiling a collection in such a way that is true to the original rhymes yet appealing to children in our century!
As far as I'm concerened, the only egg this goose lays is a golden one!

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: If you are looking for good old classic Mother Goose that you grew up, with these are not the books you want. I was disappointed to find that I have never heard of over half of these nursery rhymes and the ones that are familiar have been changed. On the up side, the illustrations are great and the book is okay for a child who isn't familiar with classic Mother Goose.
