A Child's Treasury of Nursery Rhymes

Kady MacDonald Denton's ecletic and comprehensive collection offers over 100 of the best-loved rhymes, verse, and songs, along with some new and unexpected ones. With her sometimes traditional, sometimes entirely fresh visual interpretations, she has created a beautiful book full of spirit and humor. Her joyous illustrations tell stories that will amuse, inspire, and delight readers of all ages.

A Child's Treasury of Nursery Rhymes has a unique structure. Each of the four sections reflects a different stage in a young child's life. Welcome Little Baby is full of soothing verse and lullabies. Toddler Time is packed with cheerful ditties and action rhymes. In the Schoolyard is playful and adventurous. And All Join In includes rhymes to sing with friends and family.

Nursery rhymes evoke warm childhood memories in us all. As Kady says, with this book we can all "rediscover the joyful spirit of nursery rhyme."
