About this title

Synopsis

A stunning two-volume gift set containing My Very First Mother Goose and Here Comes Mother Goose brings the magic of Mother Goose rhymes to the very youngest of children.

Review

World folklore authority Iona Opie and beloved picture book illustrator Rosemary Wells (Max's Bedtime, Max's Bath, and many more) teamed up for two absolutely fantastic award-winning Mother Goose collections, My Very First Mother Goose and Here Comes Mother Goose. Brimming over with lilting, jaunty, giddy, and sweet rhymes, and awash in adorable watercolors of a veritable menagerie of critters, from guinea pigs to cats to the omnipresent goose herself, these hardcover companion volumes are now available in a handsomely illustrated box set, featuring a mischievously frolicking Ma Goose with a few of her furry and feathered friends. Don't let another child grow up without learning by heart the traditional verses about Jack and Jill, Humpty Dumpty, and Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater. Don't shirk your parental duty: these beautiful, playful books should be a necessity in every family! (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
