Got this vintage 1969 Childcraft book from the How and Why Library series. This is Volume 1, which is all about Poems and Rhymes. It's a classic from Field Enterprises Educational Corp. The pages are in decent shape for its age, perfect if you're trying to complete a set or just want some nostalgic reading for the kids. Has that old book smell but nothing crazy. Let me know if you want it.
