Mother Goose Treasury

Briggs' drawings capture the charm and livliness of Peter and Iona Opie's version of 408 old nursery rhymes.

A selection of favorite Mother Goose rhymes.

A stunning and picture book reissue of the “brilliant” (The New York Times Book Review) classic Mother Goose collection of over 300 rhymes illustrated by Caldecott Medal winner Arnold Lobel. This treasury of 302 timeless rhymes includes both favorite and less familiar verses that are the foundation of any child’s language development, such as “This little pig went to market” and “There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.” In a starred review, School Library Journal said this gorgeous collection was “brimming over with energy…distinguished by abundant humor and a rich variety of moods and styles.”

A new collection of old and familiar nursery rhymes -- rhymes that stay alive from generation to generation because they move in lively rhythms. The words of these old favorites roll easily from the tongue, whether they be full of wisdom, humor or just plain nonsense. Many are fine poetry and serve as an important introduction to our literature. Hilda Offen's illustrations are very much in keeping with the spirit of the old familiar words. They will be a lasting joy to readers and listeners, young and old.

A collection of previously published Mother Goose and Grimm comic strips.

A collection of Mother Goose with the rhymes grouped by type: lullabies, learning rhymes, game songs, rhymes about animals, and others.

Full of charm and humor, this one-of-a-kind treasury is rich with Latino lullabies, proverbs, finger plays, tall-tales, and riddles. It is the perfect introduction to Latino folklore for English-speaking children, and a trove of familiar favorites for Spanish speakers.
