This collection of over 100 of the best-loved children's songs is totally unique! The songs are grouped by category: silly songs, animal songs, songs from far-off places, patriotic songs, nursery rhymes, fingerplay and part songs, activity songs, songs that teach, folk songs, vaudeville songs, lullabies, cowboy and western songs, and a few rounds. Each song is complete with words and music and also includes a short commentary that presents fascinating facts about its history as well as hints for performance. The arrangements are to be played by children at late elementary to early-intermediate levels, yet musical enough to keep their parents interested.
