Rooster Crows, The por Maud; Petersham Petersham, Miska
A book of American rhymes and jingles.
From the book flap:
"In this book two great artists have told the stories of these men from Washington to Eisenhower, - intimate biographies with many pictures to give readers a glimpse of their personalities and their backgrounds. In these stories is reflected the history of our country, its prosperity and hard times, war and peace, problems and good fortunes. We see , in fact, the story of the United States of America.
Here is a pictures book for all ages, a beautiful book and a handy encyclopedia of useful information."… (más)

Many of the rhymes in this book are familiar or traditional. I appreciate these kinds of poems because it shows poems from long ago. It also has songs or jingles that are also traditional. Students can use these poems to create a new version or a different version of the poems.
The subtitle is: A Book of American Rhymes and Jingles. And that’s what it is, a collection of rhymes and jingles. Most were familiar to me from my childhood. There really is no story arc, though there is some effort to group them by categories, e.g. jokes/riddles. I’m not sure I would have sat still to have this read to me even as a young child.
The illustrations are wonderful, however. Very detailed and clearly support the rhymes and jingles. So 2 stars for that.
