Favourite American folk songs, filled with magic, wonder, and make-believe, come to life for today's children with The Book of Children's Songtales. Encouraging a child's imagination to grow, storytelling combines with music to create some of the best-loved songs of childhood.

Easy to learn and fun to sing, songtales are a wonderful way to engage children, while at the same time plant the seeds of musical sensitivity and imagination. This special book, for the first time, collects the most cherished of these songs (some in danger of being lost or forgotten), enabling your family to carry on the tradition of laughter and learning that songtales have inspired for generations!

John M. Feierabend, PhD, has spent decades compiling songs and rhymes from the memories of the American people in hopes that these treasures will be preserved for future generations. He is a leading authority on child development in music and movement and served as Professor and Chair of the Music Education Department of the Hartt School of the University of Hartford.
