Old Mother Goose bears another look in this collection of favorites by acclaimed illustrator Michael Hague. Hague has taken 55 Mother Goose classics and turned them into bear-y tales! Suddenly it's "Rub-a-dub-dub, / Three bears in a tub..." and "There was a crooked bear, / And he went a crooked mile...." Illustrated throughout with bears, bears, and more bears, Teddy Bears' Mother Goose is a charming twist on a childhood standard. Kids familiar with "Little Miss Muffet," "The Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe," and "Hush-a-bye Baby" will giggle to see teddy bears in the starring roles instead. Cozy illustrations in pen, ink, watercolor, and pencil invite young readers to curl up with a favorite teddy bear or two for a read-aloud evening.
