Summary: - This collection of Mother Goose nursery rhymes contains about 45 different rhymes, each accompanied with large, full color, exceptionally detailed illustrations. The illustrations use an assortment of life-like pictures of people, humorous and exaggerated characters, and many different animals and creatures to tell the “story” of the rhyme.
Extension Activity: - Students will choose a collection of rhymes as a class that they wish to perform and present to their parents as a special play. Students will be divided into groups, and each group given a specific rhyme. Students will be responsible for designing the props, costumes, and the script, with limited instruction from the teacher.
