I just ordered my third copy of this book! In addition to the very first one I purchased, I had to replace the one my two year-old grand-daughter has worn out and also buy one for her mother to keep! This is a wonderfully illustrated collection of nursery rhymes that has totally engaged my grand-daughter, so much so that she has memorized most of the rhymes and is cued by the illustrations to repeat them word-for-word. The book contains the most comprehensive collection of nursery rhymes I have seen, does not change the traditional wording of those rhymes, and full-colour illustrations cover all pages. Those illustrations are big and bold, not pencil-like and, in my opinion, a bit frightening. My grand-daughter has gained many new words from her love of this book. It is also a grandma joy to hear a two year-old reciting "Hickory Dickory Dock" and so many others from memory. This book will become a keepsake in our family!

I bought this book for my daughter 2 years ago. She's now 2 1/2, and this book has been read to her hundreds of times (at her incessant requests) to the point that it is now covered top to bottom in scotch tape! I'm currently online to order a second copy for my 6 month old son (and no doubt to the delight of my daughter!). I can't recommend it enough!
I'm surprised to have read a complaint about the illustrations - I (and my wife, and my daughter, and everybody else who has seen the book at our house) think they are wonderful: bright, detailed, and above all, contextual (something I've wondered about with other nursery rhyme books). I think one should take that comment with a pinch of salt; there's nothing in the least bit inappropriate with the illustrations (the cover is itself an excerpt of the style in question).
My only wish would be that they could print this book on laminated paper so as to avoid all the wear and tear that it receives as our children's favorite! I for one would be happy to pay extra to preserve this book for their children one day!

I love this book for many reasons. The type is large enough to read at any time of day and the illustrations are amazing and clear. I ordered this book for a friend and am going to order another one for myself. Can't go wrong with this one!

There are innumerable nursery rhymes in this book, most of which I had never heard of. When my mother came out to visit after the baby was born, I was shocked to hear her recite all of the rhymes by hear as I read from the book. There is a large variety Also, my wife and really like the vivid colors of the illustrations. We are very pleased.
