I bought this book set when my son was only 18 months old. He's 14 now and he's completely unembarrassed to sing the songs from this book set. I was hoping this was available in cd format since the tape is all but worn out. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a simple way to connect with their young child. The songs are simple and fun to learn. You will definitely recognize some of the songs no matter what your age or ethnicity. More importantly, you and your child will enjoy the special time spent singing the songs and reading the book. My mother is a parenting teacher (for parents of infants and toddlers)and she regularly recommends this to her moms.
"Shake it to the One That You Love the Best" is the full title of this short book of play songs and lullabies from the African American musical tradition.It's a toe-tapping, hand-slapping, hip-shaking tribute to most any black little girl's growing-up days.Complete with song origins, lyrics (with sheet music) and original art, this book can provide some fun cross cultural bridge-building moments with several generations of black American families, especially those that remember Miss Mary Mack and Little Sally Walker.Listen. Learn. Love.--Linda Leigh Hargrove is the author of two works of fiction: The Making of Isaac Hunt (2007) and Loving Cee Cee Johnson (2008). Her writings blend suspense, humor, and faith into compelling stories about race and class in America.
This book and the songs in it are the source of some of my most beloved childhood memories. I still remember the words to most of the songs today, at 22, even though I haven't seen the book or listened to the tape in years. I remember singing the songs with my mother and siblings and learning the versions of them my mother sang when she was a child. We listened to it in the car. We listened to it before bed. I listened to it in my PlaySkool tape player I liked to carry around the house. I loved the illustrations as well- the fun, bright images of the play songs and the beautiful, calm images of the lullabies. This will be the source of many great childhood memories for your child, as well as a fun, interactive way to bond with them in the present!!
The book is one I purchased more than twenty years ago originally but there is a CD that should have come with it. I looked up the company that did the CD and have planned to purchase it. Sort of misleading because I expected the full package for the price paid. I think almost $20.
My children found this book and cassette at the library. We have renewed it twice and they have not tired of the little diddies.My husband even remembers some of the little songs to which we girls jumped rope. I recommend this to everyone who wants & needs to remember what it was like to be a kid again.
