Animals in Rhyme: The Friends of Mother Goose

Join us in exploring over 100 years of illustrated animal rhymes from U-M Library's Children's Literature Collection and the William A. Gosling Pop-up and Movable Book Collection. Many of our most beloved nursery rhymes feature animals as either the main characters or the driving force of their humor and plot. From Little Bo-Peep's wandering sheep to Elsie Marley's early-rising swine, from Mother Hubbard's demanding dog to the three little kittens who lost their mittens, visitors to this exhibit will find friends old and new on display.
