The Mother Goose Diaries (The Land of Stories #Companion) 
Who else gossiped with Queen Elizabeth I, taught geography to Napoleon, marched for equal rights with Martin Luther King Jr. and served as Andy Warhol's muse?
This journey through time with a beloved character from the Land of Stories series will be perfect for new and old fans alike.
Originally published in a boxed set with over 82,000 copies sold, this is now sold individually for the first time.
It's our opinion..that's all. We got the audio book out of the library. Fairy tales redone are fun. It started out sort of cute....but we actually put the wrong disc in to start...and as we're listening I have to think about explaining to my kids what the LGBT community is? Because Mother Goose is rallying with them? No thanks, this isn't for us. We didn't finish it...I'm just putting this out here for folks who are thinking they might want to pop this in for your 7-13 year old...you may want to
A humorous adventure through history. Mother Goose has delighted children for years with her rhyming stories (she only rhymes when she is drunk), but now we get another view of her influence on history. She helped out plague victims, inspired Joan of Arc and Leonardi da Vinci, influenced Marie Antoinette and Napoleon Bonaparte, fought Nazis and fought with ninjas, marched for women's rights, civil rights, and LGBT rights. She inspired so many people througout history, including Andy Warhol, and

This isn't horrible or anything, but I'm a little uncomfortable with some of theapproach to history.Also the major plot hole doesn't help.
I loved reading a book in Mother Goose's perspective, because she is one of my favorite LOS characters. Toward the end, though, especially in the LGBTQ part, I felt like Colfer is trying to impose his political beliefs on children using the influence of a lovable character. Regardless of what side I stand on in political issues, I don't think they are appropriate for children, and it is not what I signed up for when I picked up the book.
I think this book is really cute, entertaining, and funny. That being said, I think it's pretty much meant for adults. While it's a children's book in the children's fiction section, I think a lot of the references and jokes that make this book so enjoyable will be totally lost on most children. Maybe by middle school they would start to get it, but even then. I loved the book and found Mother Goose's wild adventures funny, I just don't see this being a book for children, at least not in a way
A wonderful diary showing the history in Mother Goose.
