Mother Goose Sticker Book
When creating The Mother Goose Sticker Book, Robin Page was inspired by the art in the antique children''s books she collects. The words are Mother Goose, and the pictures are thirty-two brightly colored, reusable stickers, in a strikingly designed book that''s a read-aloud as well as matching game. Children can recite the familiar verses as they find the stickers that show Humpty Dumpty on his wall, a cow jumping over the moon, and Little Miss Muffet on her tuffet. Visual clues enable children to see the connection between words and illustrations as they make their own Mother Goose picture book. And once they''re done, they can peel off the stickers and start again! A durable binding and reusable stickers make this a keepsake to be treasured for years.
