If you are looking for a terrific gift for expectant parents or a family with very young children, I have a suggestion: Pocketful of Posies: A Treasury of Nursery Rhymes. It's a very nice collection of Mother Goose and other nursery rhymes. But the best things about Pocketful of Posies are the elaborate hand-sewn fabric collages by Salley Mavor that illustrate each rhyme. Children (and adults) will enjoy looking at the collages again and again because there is so much to discover in each one. There are lots of benefits to Mother Goose rhymes in terms of literacy, so sharing nursery rhymes with babies and other young children is not only enjoyable, it is also educational. If you are looking for nursery rhyme board books, see Mother Goose Board Books for Little Ones.
