The Space Child's Mother Goose by Frederick Winsor
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another winning reprint from Purple House Press. Winsor spoofs the classic Mother Goose nursery rhymes with a scientific twist. To the adult scientist, these are a chuckle-inducing, fun collection of rhymes. For the child scientist, they may be a little denser but could provide an easy springboard for all sorts of space-y and science-y discussions. The whimsical illustrations add to the book's charm; I particularly enjoyed the ever-growing pictures in "The Theory Jack Built".
Recommended for scientists of all ages.
