The Lady with the Alligator Purse-Nadine Baernard Westcott (Boardbook)

The Lady with the Alligator Purse by Nadine Bernard Westcott is a goofy little poem for children in the nursery age group. This is a pretty short book and is a great pick for new readers. The repetition and simplicity makes it easy for a younger child to sound out words and notice the familiarities. These outrageous rhymes will appeal to reluctant readers, eager readers, silly readers, and the whole family together!
