I liked how each nursery rhyme had its own illustration and how the illustration caught the image of the words very well. I enjoyed reading the rhymes from all around the world because I have not heard of a lot of them.

I enjoyed many of these nursery rhymes because I read many of them as a little girl. I liked how all of the poetry rhymed and there was a lot of imagination involved in many of the poems.
