Book Overview

This is a collection of modern poems for children, many of them written specifically for this book. It is divided into four sections: Counting Rhymes, Finger Rhymes, Chanting Rhymes, and Action Rhymes. The brief poems are fun-to-read, and Carol Thompson's beautiful illustrations show young readers how to act out the rhymes. This brings children into the poems to play along, making reading even more fun.

Great fun, good learning

First Verses is packed with great rhymes, action verses, and chants. As a mother and teacher of 4 - 5 year-olds, I can HIGHLY recommend this book. "Marty Smarty" and "Mabel Murple" quickly became favorites in our classroom. It's great for building pre-reading skills, - the kids request hearing the verses over and over, and have memorized MANY of them. It's fun for both kids and adults!
