Not what I was expecting. Wanted nursery rhymes, but not for guitar, voice and piano. Sending it back as soon as possible.

This is an excellent book for teachers who teach young children.
There are a numerous variety of songs and the book itself is quite useful.
The music is also easy to play with piano with makes it more fun for the
teachers and children to sing along.
Next time I would like to find a music book like this,
only with Christmas Songs.
The one thing that I didn't like was that I purchased two books within the time span of 30minutes,
but two separate packages came through our mail, which made me pay the delivery fee once again
for the second book.
Besides this, the book is a great tool for teachers like me.

an okay book
May 15 2010
By L. Giaime
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I bought this about 8 months ago so that my husband and I could sing to our baby. We find it to be a little off target for us. There are some songs that are good -- many verses to Mary Had a Little Lamb or Camp Town Ladies. But then there are songs that only include 1 verse (Skip to my Lou or There's A Hole in the Bucket or the mockingbird song) or there is a tune put to mother goose nursery rhymes that we learned as poems not songs (Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat or Humpty Dumpty). There are songs that have lyrics that differ from the US traditional lyrics (A Ring-A-Ring O'Roses instead of Ring Around the Rosey). There are songs that have different tunes than the ones we learned as kids (My Hat It Has 3 Corners). There are a couple of real American traditional songs (Dry Bones, Yankee Doodle) but it is missing all of the old West songs like Goodbye Old Paint or Git Along Little Doggies (one of the yipee ki-yo songs). It's not a bad book and we use it almost daily. The paper and binding are good quality and are holding up even when the baby gets her paws on it. However, every song is listed as traditional and with only one or two exceptions the copyrights are all listed as Dorsey Brothers Limited, 2004. A cynical person might come to the conclusion that songs are missing verses or have slightly changed tunes or lyrics because the publisher didn't want to deal with rights and fees.

Fun with old favorites

One hundred and sixty-nine songs offer lots of enjoyment. I loved finding old campfire songs and folk tunes as well as game and activity rhymes. It is a big book that is a bit hard to make lie flat but after being bent back enough times that problem is solved.
Some of my old favorites are Dry Bones, Pop Goes The Weasel, The Farmer in the Dell, and The Wheels On The Bus.

It's a great book for kids!

My kids just love it, especially after our babysitter taught them the songs. The 5-year old one likes this book very much and always sings some songs from the book. The 2-year old one likes to hum along. I am sure in the future after they starts his music lessons and knows more about the notes. They will love it more.
