Lucy Cousins Treasury of Nursery Rhymes: Big Book of Nursery Rhymes and CD

This was a Chanukah gift for my nursery-rhyme loving two-year-old and it has been a big hit! He's really enjoyed Lucy Cousins illustrations for a long time -- there is something really appealing about the cute animals and bright, vivid colors. This is a good sturdy book and the size is perfect with big bright illustrations. Both of my children like to listen to it and turn the pages of the book to follow along. My toddler loves being able to use the tabs to find his favorite nursery rhymes (we're currently on a Wee Willy Winkie kick). The CD is really enjoyable -- the singer has a lovely voice and each rhyme is sung twice. Some of the YouTube nursery rhyme videos are SO annoying, and this CD is not! I hear my kids singing some of the songs throughout the day. The nursery rhymes here are really well selected. Some will be familiar (Twinkle Twinkle, Mary Had a Little Lamb) and some less so (Baby Bunting). Some Mother Goose rhymes can feel a bit dated and have themes that I think are a little scarier for today's kids, but none of the ones in this book have concerned me or my children. I think traditional rhymes don't always get enough attention now that there are so many choices in literature and music for children, but they have such great value for early literacy. I would recommend this for ages 1-5.

My son likes to flip it from front to back. Good songs and good rhythm. Great for his car ride

Provides several sayings for my husband to sing riddles with our 8 p[arrots

My grandson loves to 'read' books which really means at 2 years, that grandma reads the books to him and I am thrilled to do it! This is not his favorite only because it does not have 'Wheels on the bus' in it.

My 1yr old loves the book and its a great distraction on the car ride home.

Beautiful bell like voice, soothing and clear for a child to understand.

Good blue. Great service

I got the book in and it was torn very upset about it.

Alors là , c est un achat à succès . Bébé depuis ses 1er mois jusqu aSes 2 ans ne s en lasse pas . Il en chante des morceaux .Bonne initiation l anglais ainsi qu' à la musique

Wonderful and colorful pictures children would like.

Bel libro cartonato resistente, adatto anche per bimbi piccoli, colorato e corredato da tutti i testi. Ottima selezione di classiche nursery rhymes ben cantate. Mio figlio di 2.5 le adora, da quando è arrivato è il primo cd che accende il mattino e ascolta tutto il giorno. Ottima risorsa per l' esposizione all' inglese dei bambini piccoli. Piace anche a me.

Le pondría 10 estrellas. No me puede gustar más!

Classic nursery rhymes cute illustrations and good music. Loved by my two year old.
