This large volume collects 150 nursery rhymes, from the familiar Mother Goose to the more unfamiliar: an Inuit finger game, a Chinese American riddle, and an African American/Caribbean clapping song. Each double-page spread is illustrated by a different artist, which can make for some jarring page turns. But overall: handsome, original, and impressive in its inclusivity.
