What Really Happened to Humpty? (Nursery-Rhyme Mysteries)

I loved this story. Great for adults as well as children. A different take on the classic nursery rhyme. Adults will appreciate the dry humor & irony; while children will recognize other nursery rhyme characters and different take on the standard tale. Lots of questions/discussions as to who , what, where, when. Good book for encouraging independent thought.

I had never read this book before, but ordered it for my classroom library after reading the great reviews. It came in a timely manner, and in excellent condition. I read it for the first time as soon as it arrived. I am so excited to see how my kids will enjoy this book. This book is filled with references to other nursery rhymes, and fun illustrations. This will be a great resources to teach kids how to draw inferences!

I just received this book. I loved it! I bought it for my seven year old but since he’s in school right now, I read it to my infant. She has no clue what I’m reading but the pictures are colorful & cute. Im the one that enjoyed reading it. Im about to order another one for a family member who is a teacher. Her students will enjoy it.

This book rocks. My 2 year old LOVES Humpty and I needed to spice up story time. Although it is more of a paragraph picture book, the entire story captivated him enough til the end. I love how the author wrote the story, making it very easy to get into characters while reading aloud. It's so much fun with lots of other great characters from other Mother Goose favorites. I would give 10 stars if I could, and can't wait to read over and over again! Thank you Jeanie Franz Ransom!!

Adorable mystery story that incorporates many aspects of mother goose fairytales. Too wordy for little ones, but perfect for 3rd to 5th graders. In fact, I used this book to introduce my 5th grade class to the elements found in mystery narratives and it was a big hit!

One of my favorite ways to teach mystery to students. Use a picture book and this one is perfect because the students know the characters. It has all the items a mystery needs to have including red herrings. (The kids love that part!).

This is one of the best picture book mystery books I have ever read. It incorporates all of the nursery rhymes you could possibly imagine inside of it. Adults and kids will both enjoy this book. I use this during the mystery unit in my class each year. It's a great short mystery that has all of the vocabulary I am looking for in it.

Funny!

I used this book as an example for a children's message in my service for Trinity Sunday as a mystery. I usually have only grandkids of members and one family was in church that day, and I let them take it home and read it and they said all 4 kids read it and it was good. So it fill my purpose and the kids enjoyed it also!

Clever and a big hit with my first graders!

Love the book!

This was a birthday for both six year old granddaughters. They loved it and so do I!

Cute, clever story my children and I enjoyed. I won't leave spoilers, but think twice before you decide he just "fell."

Book was cute and I want wait to share it with my kids

Really super, but modern kids need to know the rhyme before they can appreciate the humour

Product is well made and arrived quickly from shipper.

This is a wonderful book. The kids love the book and I have read it to them several times. Awesome.

My 6 year old son loves books. I cannot wait until another one comes out.

This is a great extension of the traditional nursery rhyme. I like that it includes a variety of other nursery rhyme characters in the story.

What can I say. I love the book...it was in perfect condition...I would rate the entire process as easy and perfect!

This is a fun story. My grandkids loved it!

Love it!
