All the Pretty Little Horses

As a Kodaly music teacher I was looking for songs in book form to sing to my young groups of children. I chose this book from the Amazon Catalogue without having seen it and was delighted when it arrived. The lullaby is a beautiful song and the music is printed at the back of the book in piano score with the words. The pictures have been beautifully done with the colours really lending themselves to the peaceful, rather whimsical feel of the song. It is a winner not only with the young children but their parents as well. Very classy.

All the Pretty Little horses

My 23 Months old daughter absolutely loves this book.
Very bright and clear pictures of the baby, a mother , a sheep and other familiar objects.
It is very soothing reading or singing before bedtime.
Very few words on each page which makes it easy for toddlers to concentrate, has music to the lullaby at the end of the book.
I would highly recommend it as an addition to a bedtime routine.

A beautiful way to end the day...

Rich colors and beautifully rounded shapes capture a warmth and expressiveness that both parent and child will enjoy. The illustrations flow with the music for a delightful combination of song and imagery.

Luminous pastel illustrations washed with color accompany the familiar words of this song from the American South. With its images of many-colored horses, cake, and a lost lamb that finds its mother, this lullaby artfully bridges the gap between sleep and waking. The pictures, too, take the viewer back and forth between the comfortable reality of the cradle on the porch and the vivid landscape of a child's dream. This striking picture-book rendition offers a new vision of a favorite lullaby and includes a simple arrangement of the tune.
