This is a great book for developing language skills in young children as it teaches rhythm which is so important later on in developing their writing skills. It's fun and current and it's simple enough for young children to understand and yet still engages their imaginations. What's more, it appeals to their sense of gratitude, right and wrong, cause and effect and humor.
Whether children are in traditional homes, broken homes, or are being raised by grandparents, there's something for every young child. And whatever the situation, the rhymes express the most important thing of all...love for the children.
Lastly, it is kid tested! My four year old has much of it memorized and recites it all the time!
Ages: 2 - 6
