Nutshell Library

by Maurice Sendak

*****

This is a collection of four little books: Alligators All Around, Chicken Soup with Rice, One Was Johnny, and Pierre. I love these little rhyming books. They teach essential concepts like the alphabet, months of the year, and counting; and do it in such a clever and entertaining way! My kids love to sing "Chicken Soup with Rice" (Carole King made songs out of all of these poems....definitely worth hearing.)
