Diddle, Diddle, Dumpling

By Tracey Campbell Pearson

Book Overview

Nursery rhymes with a contemporary twist As a father reads Mother Goose at the request of his son, the toddler nods off and is taken to bed "with his trousers on; one shoe off " - it slips away as his mother carries him to his crib - "and one shoe on." There he sleeps peacefully, still clad, while the family dog retrieves the lost shoe.

Diddle Diddle Dumpling

This is a homey and charming telling of the nursery rhyme. I use books like this in teaching kindergarten reading. The children love the rhymes and the illustrations. A 21st Century look at an old rhyme.
