Because it's two o'clock in the morning and you can't remember "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"

It features more than 70 poems, lullabies, rounds, and riddles, from classics like "Hey Diddle Diddle," to newer songs like "The Wheels on the Bus," too wonderful non-English versus including "Pío, Pío, Pío," the sweet yet dramatic Chilean ditty about chickens. Plus, exactly how to perform the intricate finger ballet known as "Itsy Bitsy Spider." Includes downloadable recordings.
