About this audiobook
Mother Goose's melodies belong to the children, and no addition or change should be made except by those who are in such close sympathy with the child-heart that they may act with the child's authority.This present edition of "Mother Goose" preserves the best of the verses which became so popular in England and America as to first demand their publication. It is the only truly classic edition that has been published in modern times.Not all the favorites among the nursery rhymes are here, only those that first helped to make the fame of the fictitious but no less worthy patron of childhood. May her fame and her melodies be lovingly preserved to give joy and inspiration to many future generations of little children.-Eulalie Osgood Grover (1915)

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a lovely collection of classic mother goose rhymes, ranging from the well-known; Peter Piper, Bah, bah, blacksheep and Hushabye baby, to the lesser-known (at least for me);About the bush, Willie; There Was an Old Woman Tossed in a Blanket; and The Man in The Moon Came Down to Soon. Lively and fun, these will introduce young ones to the world of cadence and rhyme so well known throughout the ages. In this version, the illustrator revives the ink and watercolor style of the original books.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a classic from my childhood. It was given as a book to my family when I was born. It's still in great shape.
