So this week I have something a leetle bit different. It's not a vintage children's book but rather a vintage children's record. I have a great little collection of old kid's albums—which are trickier to find than you might think. Most of the kid's albums you find in thrift stores are thrashed beyond believe—well loved by the kiddos who played them to death on their old plastic record players. One of my favorite things about these vintage records are the little booklets often included. This one is from a Mother Goose album and the drawings are super charming. The illustrations are by Harry Wysocki. I had this book as a child, but this was a thrift store score.
