Other Goose Rhymes: Recycled Rhymes for Our Fragile Times


Klunder, Barbara Wyn. Other Goose Rhymes: Recycled Rhymes for our Fragile Times. Groundwood Books: 2007. ISBN: 9780888998293.

This book consists of Old Mother Goose nursery rhymes that were turned into nursery rhymes that have to do with all kinds of problems today. Political, environmental, and even some sales problems are found in this book. I though this book had funny metaphors and gave us a "hint" about why this is wrong. I think this book could be for kids in their teens and up because little kids don't really care about all of the problems of today. But they will hopefully in the future. Also, environmentalists and people who believe in fixing the problems would enjoy this book as well.
