A Classic that should be in every toddler's collection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This book has great classic poems that are simple and fun for little ones. It's set up similar to Poems and Prayers for the Very Young by Martha Alexander--each spread has a few poems with illustrations including something relevant to each poem. The only difference is that this is a board book, nice and sturdy for toddlers, and this one includes charming pictures by Eloise Wilkin. This is a big book compared to most board books that are designed for little hands. This one is about 8 inches square, made to be read on your lap.
An excellent book, fabulous poems, fantastic illustrations
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I love Golden Books, I grew up on them. When I got older I figured out why - Eloise Wilkin was the best illustrator! I had many of books with her illustratons. I used to think that they were actually about me, that is how wonderful her aristry is! When I found this book, I knew that I had to buy this for my baby. As it is, reading is one of the most important things that you can do for your baby, so I love to sit down and read the poems to my 8 month old son. This book just can't be beat.
Best book of poetry for young children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is the best collection of poems for children and the illustrations cannot be beat. Bought this book 20 years ago for grandchildren and now are buying more for their children. I am so glad it is back in print.
My Favorite Book of Poetry!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a simply exceptional book! It called be called nothing less than a "classic." Every child and adult will want to read these poems again and again. I still quote from the poems, "Bedtime" and "High-heeled Shoes," more than twenty years after I first learned them. I can't wait to read these poems to my own children someday!
