Very disappointed in this book I'd bought for a Baby Shower "grandma" gift item. Not only is the print small and illustrations gray scale, but the paper is soft and will tear easy. Can't believe I paid $8.99 for it.
Nice selection of Rhymes and Songs, as the name implies, and all the favorites I wanted were there. The production quality was not that great---the pictures were wonderful classic illustrations from all the great old books, BUT they were in black and white, and looked like they had been reproduced cheaply. So I'm kind of happy with the book, but wish it was on nicer paper with sharper color images.
I love it, my neighbors love it, my friends love it, the mailman wants one like it and my sister and I sing the songs to each other over the phone for fun. I have the feeling my grand daughter will like it if she can get it away from grandma. My daughter wasn't too thrilled now that I am singing all these goodies but oldies to her, she is 38.
I could find all these rhymes online, some are incomplete or don't have the long versions. Although some do have the multiple versions of the songs. You could print off a better assortment of these yourself. The pictures are what make the book seem extremely cheap, they are bad resolution copy and pasted from the internet. Also there are a few typos which really aren't a big deal but do bother me.
My pediatrician told us that rhymes and songs are the best way for kids to learn language skills. That's what drew us to this item in the first place. The book itself has a ton of great rhymes and sing-along songs. However, my son is 18 months old and loves to "read" stories. I was hoping for a book that I could read with him sitting on my lap and helping to turn pages. Despite the cover, the pages themselves are all black and white, no color at all, and the paper is like that of an adult paperback book so not good at all for small hands. If you want something to read to an infant too young to participate in flipping pages and looking at the pictures, it's great for that. If you are looking for book for an older infant who would want to sit on your lap and read it with you, this is definitely not the one.
Im taking care of my grandson but seems to have forgotten the lyrics of the nursery rhymes... Brings back memories of my childhood & now i can sing with lyrics & my grandson listens with a smile... :)
I am a 62 year old grandmother, and this is the Best book, I've bought so far, for my grandchildren!! It has every Nursery Rhyme from when I was little as well as the ones we used to say and read to our 3 children! Any mother or grandmother today will recognize at least 80% of these Nursery Rhymes and there are So Many of them, too!! My son and his wife who are 35, just love this Book for their baby twins!! These are all the Nursery rhymes we all grew up with and more! You'll love it, I know!
If you find yourself stumbling on the words of some of your favourite nursery rhymes then this book will be your saving grace! It has all the classics with a few I've never heard of. My son loves it!
