"The Good Mother Goose" from Christian Faith Publishing author Catherine Elaine McPherson is an entertaining compilation of rhymes and verses that emphasizes positive qualities.
MEADVILLE, Pa., October 3, 2019 (Newswire.com) - “The Good Mother Goose”: a stirring book compilation of poems and rhymes written with remarkable verses from the bible. “The Good Mother Goose” is the creation of published author Catherine Elaine McPherson, a worshiper and lover of God. She is also an ordained minister and Christian counselor.
McPherson writes, “Recognizing the power of words on the hearts of young children, I set out to give the familiar Mother Goose nursery rhymes a Christian twist. The rewritten verses emphasize positive qualities instead of the sometimes-dubious meanings. For example, we remember “Peter, Peter, pumpkin-eater. Peter had a wife but couldn’t keep her, so he put her in a pumpkin shell, and there he keeps her very well.” Unfortunately for Mrs. Pumpkin-eater, it sounds like she may be in the pumpkin shell against her will. And furthermore, Mr. Pumpkin-eater comes off as a bully. Wouldn’t the following verse be a kinder, gentler version?
“‘Peter, Peter, pumpkin-eater had a wife and loved to please her. He bought for her a pumpkin shell; they live there now, and all is well.’ (A picture of a happy couple!)
“The Good Mother Goose not only provides revisited verses, but original poems and nursery rhymes accompanied with appropriate Bible verses. Parents will find teaching their children poetry fun and meaningful way to incorporate positive values and scripture in a meaningful way.”
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, McPherson’s new book is a fascinating pool of inspiring rhymes and verses, allowing the readers to not just learn of reading rhymes but also in reading Bible passages.
With this book, the author hopes that the fun of imparting singsong verses to little ears be carried on with additional affirmation of positive and faith-filled value.
