“Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet eating her curds and whey…” What does that mean? That prompted me to revise the original Mother Goose rhymes. I wanted to reflect a more sensitive and relevant world for today’s young child. ENJOY! – Diana Helzer, M.A.Ed.
“Ms. Goodgoose Rhymes Revised” (2020) 31 pages.
Ms. Goodgoose Rhymes Revised removes negative stereotypes and awkward violence from twelve classic nursery rhymes. This transformation makes them a fun, kid-friendly experience, as they should be. (No chopping off mice tails or spooky spiders).
Artist and poet Diana Helzer revised the book. Mighty Fudge Studios whimsically illustrated it. Boulder Community Media published the book. Paige Berry voiced an audiobook.
Kids and adults alike will delight in the new wildly imaginative illustrations by Mighty Fudge Studios. Their animated children’s films have won such honors as the Blue Plum Children’s Choice Award. They have also received the Kids First Honors for the Coalition for Quality of Children’s Media. It’s sure to be a classic for kids of all ages!
