Humpty Who?

The perfect gift for parents, Humpty Who? by Jennifer Griffin is the hip approach to bedtime. Humpty Who? by Jennifer Griffin is a what-to-read as well as a how-to-read, this collection of 80 judiciously selected, edited, and annotated rhymes, songs, and finger play features all the timeless characters and their stories -- Jack and Jill, Georgie Porgie, Little Bo Peep, the Noble Duke of York, Contrary Mary, Wee Willie Winkie, the Three Blind Mice. But it's more than just Mother Goose. There are lullabies, rounds, and riddles. How to recite "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider," and make the hand-motions that have held children spellbound for generations. Plus, there are explanations for curious children (and grown-ups)--for example, what exactly a "tuffet" isand suggestions for reciting the poetry of the greats (Shakespeare, Blake, Dickinson). The accompanying CD, featuring the rocking "Hell's Kitchen Moms and Babes Ensemble," is both great to play for baby, and the fun way for parents to learn the music that goes along with many of the rhymes. Ages infant & up.
