Honey for You, Honey for Me

Warmhearted, unfussy presentations by Riddell (Pirate Stew) feature lots of gallivanting animals (anthropomorphized and otherwise) and an inclusive cast of children in settings that range from white space to landscapes to sunny domestic interiors…in terms of foundational texts for youngest children, this one should elicit as many smiles as “honey for breakfast, honey for tea.”

This is not your average book of nursery rhymes. This illustrated collection consists of verses sourced from historical anthologies and therefore contains poems that many Americans have most likely never encountered before.. a thoughtfully curated and entertaining read for devotees of English and Anglo-American children’s verse or for adults looking to expose their children to nursery rhymes they may not otherwise hear. An unusual, lively collection of nursery rhymes sourced from historic texts.
