Classic Rhymes For Kiwi Kids
by Peter Millett and Scott Tulloch
Bateman Books, 2017, 32pp, soft cover
This is, in my humble opinion, one of the essential books for Kiwi kids.
And for any kid or adult who loves funny rhymes.
So take yourself back to "Do the Hokey Tokey", "Little Jack Horner", "London Bridge is Falling Down", "Jack Sprat" and all the other classic nursery rhymes. And imagine them re-imagined as Kiwi nursery rhymes. Yep, the results are hilarious!
For instance, "Baa Baa Black Sheep" becomes "Baa Baa halfback, have you any ball? Yes, sir, yes, sir, in the maul".
Or "Jack's sprat was hardly fat, In fact it was too thin. So Jack whipped out His fishy chart, And chucked it right back in!"
This is the perfect book to read to kids and grand kids, and it is beautifully illustrated as well.
A wonderful keepsake of New Zealand.
