Interestingly, I first saw the book “Mother Gooses Words of Wit and Wisdom” in an elementary school library. I loved the bright colors and great illustrations. But it took me a while to realize that all the illustrations in the book were counted cross-stitch designs! Once I realized that, I wondered if there were charts available of these illustrations. After a bit of searching, I discovered that indeed this second book was available – a book of charts!
