My big nursery rhyme book - Julie Lacome

A colourful collection of best-loved nursery songs in a colourful and durable format, suitable for very young children. There are fifteen favourite nursery songs in this book, including Humpty Dumpty; Baa Baa Black Sheep; Hush-a-bye Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star and, of course, Sing a Song of Sixpence. There are nonsense songs and rocking songs; bathtime songs and bedtime songs - each memorably illustrated in bold, bright colours. The big board format makes these classic songs and rhymes accessible to the youngest child. Big enough to be shared by parent and baby, the rounded corners and laminated pages make this ideal for young children to explore themselves. Julie Lacome is well-known for her colourful collage illustrations, which have immense appeal for the very young. Already to her credit on the Walker list are Ruthie's Big Old Coat, which won the 2001 Scottish Arts Council Children's Book Award; Walking Through the Jungle; I'm a Jolly Farmer; The Shape of Things and four titles by Pam Ayres, Guess What?; Guess Where?; Guess Who? and Guess Why? Julie lives in Edinburgh.
