"The Equal Rhymes Amendment" tries to do what the title implies - to amend nursery rhymes so they offer a more equitable outlook to children. The old, familiar rhymes are still there - just modified somewhat, or an extra verse or two added. The illustrations feature lots of rainbows, along with children from every race, ability and disability. Combined together, the illustrations and rhymes offer parents a new perspective on old rhymes, and who knows, they may become the rhymes our children show more and grandchildren remember. show less
