Pat-a-Cake,' 'Simple Simon,' 'Rock-a-bye, Baby:' these and the many other rhymes that make up Mother Goose have become almost as much a staple of child-rearing as the rattle and the bottle. Little ones love its mix of lullabies and limericks, humor and sing-song verse, and they learn from it too. Gyo Fujikawa brought her inimitable style to this version, which features a mix of enchanting line drawings and warm color pictures. Adorable mice, led by a duck in uniform, man the boat in 'I Saw a Ship a-Sailing.' A multicultural group of children circle round 'The Mulberry Bush.' And 'The Three Kittens' have never been cuter. Fujikawa has succeeded in creating a truly magical world for kids to enter.
