Dorling Kindersley Book of Nursery Rhymes Reviews
-
A very good book of nursery rhymes. It even gives you some background of where the rhymes originated.
-
Traditional rhymes with some very brief side notes on their origins. Cute pictures that are a little too saccharine for my taste, but are probably well-suited for the young child audience of this book.
