Book Reviews of The Book of Lullabies: Wonderful Songs and Rhymes Passed Down from Generation to Generation for Infants & Toddlers (First Steps in Music series)

Book Review: A Great Collection of Lullabies
Summary: 5 Stars

An almost comprehensive collection of lullabies from around most of the world. None from Native America or the Pacific Islands. Both music (the melody line) and lyrics are provided. This is a great book for those who wish to sing to their child Those interested in the lullaby as a music form, perhaps the earliest songs of humanity, will find this collection very useful, but information about the sources is lacking. I read music and can play most of these on Native American flutes, and I am sure the player of any instrument could play them as well. The chording is not indicated, but any musician can figure out what chords to play to accompany a singer or someone playing these simple tunes.

Summary of The Book of Lullabies: Wonderful Songs and Rhymes Passed Down from Generation to Generation for Infants & Toddlers (First Steps in Music series)

Including the text and musical notation of 80 lullabies that have withstood the test of time, this book will inspire joy, and laughter in infants and toddlers. The book features songs in English as well as in Japanese, Russian, Yiddish, Spanish, French, German, and several other languages, with English translations. Favorites such as Brahms' "Lullaby," "Hush, My Baby Don't You Cry," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," and "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" are just a sampling of the numerous multilingual, multicultural soothing songs that lull children to sleep.
