Well, I was able to judge this book by its cover: I love Rodgers & Hammerstein songs (you don't even have to be a great singer to pull them off!), and I love Rosemary Wells' witty illustrations. The marriage of songs and pictures is magical. Only the verse of each song is in the illustrated section of the book, but that won't stop you from singing the whole song if you (and your child) feel like it! A songbook with complete lyrics is included, so get into that rocking chair with or without your favorite kid, and belt 'em out!
How could you not love this book; some of the greatest songs written for american theatre illustrated by one of the great artists of children's books. If you have a small son or daughter, buy this book! ESPECIALLY if they:1: Love musicals (like my son)2: Love Rosemary Wells (like my son)
Rosemary Wells wonderful animal artwork illustrate selections from some of Rodger and Hammerstein's greatest works. The selections are on the theme of friendship and acceptance--The Farmer and the Cowboys Should be Friends from Oklahoma and Getting to Know You from the King and I. The song selections are just a few lines long and it's a wonderful book to read and sing with children and grandchildren. The large size of this book adds to the enjoyment of sharing this book. Recommended for all ages.
We recently gave this book to my grandmother for her 80th birthday. As a child, my grandmother would often sing many of these songs to us. She truly loved the book and has my seven year old daughter singing "O What a Beautiful Morning".
