The Real Dada Mother Goose Jon Scieszka and Julia Rothman - ESSENTIAL

 The Real Dada Mother Goose: a treasury of complete nonsense by Jon Scieszka and Julia RothmanPICTURE BOOK. Candlewick, 2022. 9780763694340

BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS, HS - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Scieszka takes 6 classic nursery rhymes and messes each them up in 6 totally unique, mostly hilarious ways. Not only a great way to teach nursery rhymes to a new generation, but the clever twists on each rhyme will ignite imaginations. I love that at the end Scieszka encourages readers to take their own nursery rhymes and twist them in new ways. Includes back matter explaining twist, such as Esperanto, that readers may not be familiar with.
