Mother Goose Rhymes

Mother Goose is the grand dame of children's nursery rhymes.


Just the words Mother Goose conjures up images of a great white bird with a bonnet on her head and tiny reading glasses resting on her bill.


For some others, the image is a grandmotherly lady with a bonnet and reading glasses riding on a magnificent white goose.

Either image brings with it those great little rhymes of whimsy, magic, nonsense and fun!

We were raised on these whimisical rhymes as were our children and now our grandchildren.


These fabulous little rhymes and the images of Mother Goose have a long history that goes back for hundreds of years.

Did you know there is even a Mother Goose Day in honor of these great rhymes and stories?

We have gathered in our library many of the well known and some not so known nursery rhymes.
