What to expect: Sing-a-long, Bedtime, Nursery Rhymes
A wonderful collection of new nursery rhymes written to a nice combination of original tunes and classic favorites. Songs like Twinkle, Twinkle, Count with Me (to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”) and Who Is Sleeping? (to the tune of “Frere Jacques”) catch the attention of preschoolers easily. Others, like Blanket Friends (An original calypso song), are imaginative and fresh — a couple of the songs are remindful of Laurie Berkner’s sound. The illustrations match well with the words, allowing for emerging readers to connect with the rhymes when listening. This book has been a huge hit at our house and in the car. Thumbs-up!
