Pat-a-Cake," "Simple Simon," "Rock-a-bye, Baby: " these and the
many other rhymes that make up "Mother Goose" have become almost as
much a staple of child-rearing as the rattle and the bottle. Little

verse, and they learn from it too. Gyo Fujikawa brought her
inimitable style to this version, which features a mix of
enchanting line drawings and warm color pictures. Adorable mice,
led by a duck in uniform, man the boat in "I Saw a Ship a-Sailing."
A multicultural group of children circle round "The Mulberry Bush."
