Customer Reviews

Has all the lullabies was looking for plus many more...

Compact size yet contains a large number of lullabies and poems. Nice touch that it notes the author of each one (if known). This book was just what I was looking for. Easy to stuff in a diaper bag yet has all the classics that I remembered from childhood and wanted to sing to my baby. Purchased several other much larger books that had far fewer entries before finding this one. Done looking now!

A great baby gift!

it includes the words to many of the classics that you sing to baby (who knew "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" had more than one stanza?) Also includes many interesting poems from other countries....

beautiful

Absolutely beautiful book. Highly recommmended to anyone with children of any age. The Everyman editions are of extremely high quality as well. I can't see anyone being dissapointed with this purchase. The price is well worth it. There are known and many more unknown poems here. I was even surprised to find the entire Twinkle Twinkle Little Star poem which is much longer than I thought.

great book for new parents

This book is great for two reasons: 1) it has boatloads of lyrics for the lullabies you'd like to sing to your kids but can't recall the words and 2) it has wonderful poems. I wish I had this book when my first child was born and I was struggling to find words to say to this tiny little person.
