Bright, Bold and Dimensional Nursery Rhymes for Baby


Barbara Reid, a Canadian illustrator who works with Plasticine and found objects, is acclaimed for many, many books. My personal favourite is Subway Mouse. It tells the tale of a young mouse who longs to escape the subway and discover Tunnel's End.

Ms. Reid has now created a new board book edition of Sing a Song of Mother Goose. Featuring fourteen nursery rhymes, as one would expect, the illustrations are delightful: bright, bold and dimensional. An excellent choice for very young children.

For additional background information, Ms. Reid's website has loads of news about her books and the various techniques she uses.
