This is a three-level series for children at early primary/primary level. It contains popular traditional nursery rhymes. Each rhyme is preceded by a story that sets the scene and presents the core language of the rhyme. As a result, children will be able not only to sing traditional nursery rhymes, but also to relate the humorous stories contained within each one.
Though all the songs and rhymes are well-known, still it’ll be fun to listen to them once again: The alphabet song * What cuckoos say * Days the week * One, two, three, four * The little fingers * Little bird * The three little kittens * If you are happy * I like to skip * Dame trot * Trot to Boston * The train * Twinkle, twinkle, little star * The keys of the Kingdom * Sleep, baby, sleep. Moreover, you can not only sing with the singer but also sing to the music (which is usually very helpful).
Dr. Seuss is famous the world over for helping children learn to read. But now even pre-readers can join in the fun and benefit from his wacky rhymes and crazy pictures.
