  Sing a Song of Mother Goose
Illustrated by Barbara Reid

"Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds,
Baked in a pie!"

So opens the first dainty dish in this sturdy board book collection of 14 favourite Nursery Rhymes. It's a perfect way to introduce children to Humpty Dumpty, Little Miss Muffet, Jack, Jill and others from the world of Mother Goose. All new illustrations re-visit many old friends from Barbara's original classic collection, now celebrating it's twentieth year in publication.
