A tricky review! Some would call this a high-variance rhyme book. Some were quite good, and others awful!

[Vincent · Rating 4 out of 5]

Many new rhymes (or I don't recall them) and some good old favorites from my youth. Nico is starting to be aware of his surroundings, holding his head, making more facial expressions and definitely looking at the pages. I read to him during smiles and cranky crying. Something tells me I will read this book several times in the next few years. Thank you to Catherine Lewer, a client of Buttonwood's, for such a lovely illustrated treasure. I look forward to hearing Nico read them to me some day in the future.

I was pretty conflicted as to what rating to give this. Personally I thought it came off as being a cheap public domain reproduction with far too many illustrations to help up the page count. But my son ADORED it and would have sat down and listened to the whole thing in one reading if I had had the patience to do so (I didn't so it was spread out over time).

The book is beautiful with cute and sometimes silly illustrations. The kids and I enjoyed reading the rhymes together each night before bed.
