Pocketful of Posies

by Sally Mavor

(2010)(Children's New Books J398.8 POC)

for ages infant to preschool

Although it is full of classic rhymes, beginning with morning rhymes and ending with bedtime rhymes; this is no ordinary nursery rhyme book! The artwork is truly amazing and makes this book stand out. Each scene is sewn by hand by the author. In her author's note she says she uses naturally dyed felt, a variety of stitching methods, found objects and the very occasional drop of glue. You could spend a lot of time just enjoying the details on each page.

Included in the back is an index of first lines for the rhymes therein. It's a lovely book that could be enjoyed for years.-sc-
