Pocketful of Stars: Rhymes, Chants, and Lap Games by Felicity Williams, illustrated by Michael Martchenko

From the back of the book:
Preschoolers who hear words spoken and interpreted expressively will in time learn to speak and act expressively. We must, therefore, surround our children with words from birth, captivating their imaginations with chants that rhyme and sing. This contemporary collection of rhymes is great fun because it enables adults and very young children to play with words together...although this book was written for babies, you will find that older children, particularly siblings, also love to join in.
