Book Overview
This hand-picked collection of classic nursery rhymes, all delicately and painstakingly illustrated by Salley Mavor, who is reknown for her incredibly detailed fabric and cloth scenes. It took Mavor ten years to develop her own fabric relief technique to a level where she felt comfortable even considering illustrating a book. Now, Mavor embroiders and sews illustrations, each scene taking nearly a month to complete. In this book, Mavor renders a new and visionary nursery rhyme world with precision and intricacy for many a generation to treasure for years and years to come.

Gorgeous and full of rhymes
Published by Kirbie , 4 years ago
This is probably one of the most beautiful books I have ever seen. Not only does my son enjoy it, but I enjoy it as well. It's not one of those books that makes me groan in despair whenever he brings it over to me or asks me to read it again, lol. When I first received it, I was kind of surprised at just how many rhymes there were. It's a gem, a wonderful find.
