Book Description

Like Mary Had a Little Jam, this book contains 40 silly rhymes that will put a smile on the faces of preschoolers and early-elementary kids. The rhymes (written by Lansky and an ensemble of poets whose work is featured in Mary Had a Little Jam and in Lansky's best-selling poetry anthologies) recount the latest adventures of well-loved Mother Goose characters--but with a humorous twist. Stephen Carpenter's hilarious full-color illustrations, add to the entertainment value of this amusing book. Rave reviews for previous book Mary Had a Little Jam "¿Mother Goose meets Monty Python.
