Arnold Lobel Book of Mother Goose: A Treasury of More Than 300 Classic Nursery Rhymes
Comic Adventures of Old Mother Hubbard and Her Dog
Now We Are Six (The Winnie-the-Pooh Series #4)
When I was One,
I had just begun.
When I was Two,
I was nearly new.
When I was Three
I was hardly me.
When I was Four,
I was not much more.
When I was Five, I was just alive.
But now I am Six, I’m as clever as clever,
So I think I’ll be six now for ever and ever.
However, the author says in the introduction:
We have been nearly three years writing this book. We began it when we were very young…and now we are six. So, of course, bits of it seem rather baby-ish to us […] So we want you to know that the name of the book doesn’t mean that this is us being six all the time, but the it is about as far as we’ve got at present, and we half think of stopping there.

Rhymes and Verses: Collected Poems for Young People
“Only the rarest kind of best in anything can be good enough for the young,” wrote Walter de la Mare, and this handsome reissue of Rhymes and Verses, an anthology of all his poems for children, does indeed offer the “rarest kind of best” to a new generation of young people.
De la Mare’s verse recaptures the direct appeal of the nursery rhyme in poems of amazing variety, poems marked by charm and freshness and an irresistible rhythmic force and immediacy. They should be part of every child’s reading experience.
