Five traditional nursery rhymes -- each with its own two-page spread -- are presented with a puzzle or a game to bring the rhyme to life! Today I Went to Sea asks kids to match reusable pirate stickers to the correct footprints in a treasure hunt. Little Bo-peep has movable sheep hidden behind flaps. Humpty Dumpty features an eleven-piece sticker picture puzzle that puts Humpty back together again. Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary works in a garden of movable flowers for kids to insert in correct slots. Finally, Carry me, Carry me gives boys and girls a board game with a spinner, and game pieces to move on a spiral track. The verses are familiar; the presentation and illustrations are entirely original and perfectly charming.
