Grandmother Remembers Songbook

Rating:
Summary: Charming and beautifully done
Review: A great slice of Americana, this book is wonderful for parents and grandparents alike. The songs are easily arranged for singing and/or playing and the watercolor illustrations are sweet. And for those of us who can only remember the first verse or chorus of old favorites, this book prints all the verses! Enjoy!

Summary: Singing as we travel!
Review: In anticipation of my soon-to-arrive grandchild, I bought this book to help myself remember all the songs I used to sing to my own children who are now grown. The songs are simple to sing, the melodies are simple---which is good for me because I am just a grammy who wants to sing to her grandchild. I actually tried the songs out on my infant nephew and he enjoys them. I sing to my daughters tummy and my grandson moves about alot while I sing. I assume he is dancing. The illustrations are very nice too and I think the book will get alot of use. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Singing as we travel!
Review: Recently, we sang our way along the roadways
of Washington State to the Columbia River Gorge.
I had purchased the book and my husband and I
knew the words and tunes; however our 8 year old
granddaughter did not and could read them. We
had such fun singing when the views were of desert
and desolation. We laughed and giggled along the
trip of 5 days enjoying a bit of what our grand-
parents taught to us at the same ages. Boredom
was not spoken and we all enjoyed the trip thanks
to the book and our memories we shared with each
other. Of course when I was a little girl we did
not have airconditioning, and all of the conveniences
and singing to our hearts content was a way of passing
time in a positive way for all of us. Memories!
We were creating memories, perhaps you will purchase
this book also and create memories with your family.

Summary: Classic songs - kids love the illustrations
Review: The paintings illustrating each song capitivate my 2 and 3 yr. olds, and go all around the pages. This songbook wins out over the other ones we have because the kids love being able to pick out their favorite songs by the pictures. The music itself is simple, and the songs are classic and easy for kids to learn/sing. This one is a winner!
