Mother Goose's Little Treasures

"Mother Goose's Little Treasures" is a beautifully curated collection of 22 nursery rhymes, some well-loved and others less common, hand-picked by Iona Opie. This book offers a wonderful opportunity to introduce young children to the rich tradition of Mother Goose, focusing on the musicality and rhythm of language. While some verses may be abstract, the emphasis is on the joy of sound and storytelling, making it ideal for read-alouds and fostering early literacy. The beloved illustrations by Rosemary Wells add warmth and character to each page.

A collection of nursery rhymes featuring such little-known characters as the wee melodie man and Handy Spandy, Mrs. Whirly and little bonny Button-cap.
