Industry Reviews "...Rosemary Wells has interpreted this collection with such humor and illustrated they rhymes with such affection that both children and their parents will find them irresistible....If you give only one book to your favorite child or young-at-heart reader for the holidays, let it be this one." New York Times Book Review - Nancy Willard (11/10/1996)
"...a delicious collection..." Washington Post Book World - Robert Haas (12/08/1996)
"Opie's choices for inclusion are flawless, and the design and layout of the book is exuberantly in sync with the boisterous nature of the ditties and their dramatis personae. Wells does an exemplary job with a plethora of watercolor-and-ink illustrations.....a laudable new edition of the familiar rhymes." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Janice M. Del Negro (12/19/1996)
"There's little point in pretending that even prodigious collections of nursery rhymes can do without this one--it's a must." Stasio
