November 2014 Book of the Month Every child needs a collection of nursery rhymes and this collection of favourites with their clear and unfussy illustrations makes an excellent starting point for parents and children alike. Helpfully, the rhymes have been we-organised in groups under headings including ‘How Curious’ and ‘Just for Fun’ as well as the more obvious ‘Animals’ and ‘Goodnight’.
Cally Johnson-Isaacs' bold, jolly little pictures capture the fun and mischief in nursery rhymes, while being friendly and appealing. A stylish volume that a child can treasure for years. Also available: The Lion Book of Nursery Fables The Lion Book of Nursery Tales The Lion Nursery Bible
