On the Go with Mother Goose (Board)
Author(s): Iona Opie
Babies and toddlers who love things that go will be drawn to this surefire selection of Mother Goose rhymes. The train that took the pussycat to London to see the queen, the fancy car that sped the pig to market, the big ship that sails on the alley alley oh -- these and other conveyances play a visual part in a collection of nursery rhymes sure to entice little fans of vehicles that drive, chug, or sail. With infectious verse presented by Iona Opie and beautiful illustrations by Rosemary Wells, these traditional rhymes invite parents and caregivers to zoom along with Mother Goose and give the on-the-go baby in their life a solid and loving start.
