Mother Goose Goes to India by Wazza Pink, Kabir Sehgal, Surishtha Sehgal
5.0

Age: Toddler-1st grade
Identity: Indian & American/English fusion

What a terrific blend of cultures that is expertly achieved by these wordsmiths! The cadence and "message" of the original Mother Goose rhymes are maintained with Hindi words peppered throughout. The illustrations are detailed enough that children can soak them in while the adult reads the fun wordplay (with phonetic translations for non-Hindi speakers). I can't wait to use some of these in my baby storytime!
