"Best Mother Goose Ever contains fifty mother goose nursery rhymes artfully illustrated by Richard Scarry. The illustrations are large because this is a BIG Golden Book, unlike most Golden Books that are smaller in size. One nursery rhyme fills two pages, which makes this perfect for read aloud.
Best Mother Goose Ever is pleasing to the eye because of Richard Scarry's animal illustrations for each of the nursery rhymes.

This book can make little ones laugh and adults crack a smile.
