None of us, whether children or adults, needs an introduction to
Mother Goose. Those things which are earliest impressed upon our
minds cling to them most tenaciously The snatches sung in the
nursery are never forgotten, nor are they ever recalled without
bringing back with them myriads of slumbering feelings and
half-forgotten images. In making the stories I have followed mainly
the suggestions of the rhymes, and my hope is that the little ones
will like them, and not find that they interfere with the fanciful
creations of their own imaginations. L. Frank Baum was an author of
children's books, best known for writing The Wonderful Wizard of
Oz. He wrote 55 novels in total, plus four "lost" novels, 83 short
stories, over 200 poems, and more.
Never have young children had a better picture-book introduction to
Mother Goose than this book with its profusely illustrated
collection of 21 nursery rhymes. L. Leslie Brooke's marvelous
draftsmanship and the subtleties of his illustrations, both color
and black-and-white, have a clarity that will delight both children
and adults. * * * * A beautiful book to sit down and enjoy with
your child, one that should be in every child's own library. Rhymes
included are: The Man in the Moon; To Market, To Market; Simple
Simon; There was a Man; The Lion and the Unicorn; Little Miss
Muffet; Oranges and Lemons; Goosey, Goosey Gander; Humpty Dumpty;
Baa, Baa, Black Sheep; The Three Wise Men of Gotham; This Little
Pig Went to Market; Jack and Jill; There was a Crooked Man; Little
Bo-peep; Good King Arthur; There was a Little Man; Ring O' Roses;
Hickety Pickety My Black Hen; Cock-a-Doodle-Doo; and Wee Willie
Winkie. * * * * Of all the different editions of this classic, none
is more treasured than this one, with the 32 gorgeous, soft,
full-color full-page paintings, and 58 delicate Black-and-White
line drawings that all combine to make the perfect picture-book for
young children. * * * * Check our other Children's, Juvenile, and
Adult books at www.FlyingChipmunkPublishing.com, or Like us on

One of the biggest problems faced by those working with very young
children at Christmas is how to involve pre-readers in the nativity

plays - all of which can be performed with groups of any size. Each
one tells the story of the first Christmas from a difference
perspective, using well-known nursery rhyme turnes to bring the
storyline to life. Simple directions, costumes and props ensure

the performance. Includes photocopy permission.
