First Verses is a series of books of new and original poetry for young children, chosen by John Foster. The first four titles were very well received, and Playtime Rhymes is one of the second batch of four more First Verses titles.In Playtime Rhymes there are all kinds of games to play - balls, kites, playdough, skipping ropes - and lots of action rhymes to join in with.The book is illustrated in full colour, and Carol Thompson's beautifully observed pictures create their own lively world, as well as giving help on how to 'play' some of the rhymes.
