Crews, Nina. 2004. The Neighborhood Mother Goose. Greenwillow Books. New York, New York. ISBN 0060515732
This book of traditional Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes is full of rhymes that readers will recognize as well as some that are less known. The collection will allow readers to identify with rhymes (such as Hey, Diddle Diddle and Little Miss Muffett) as well as being exposed to new ones (such as Bow, Wow, Wow and Once I Saw A Little Bird). I love the photography in this book. The photographs accentuate the poems and put them into a different perspective than the traditional illustrations. Even though these are traditional rhymes that many have in anthologies on the shelves of their library this is still a valuable purchase because of the photography and change of setting.
