My Aunt Came Back, Hardcover/John M. Feierabend

Descriere

Revisiting a folk music classic, this delightfully illustrated picture book adds an unexpected twist to a timeless song, building to a hilarious conclusion certain to engage children time and again. No one knows where the lyrics of this fanciful rhyme originated, although the melody is certainly based on the classic tune "How Dry I Am." Sung as an echo song, and accompanied by hand motions, children will laugh out loud at the antics of the Aunt, who in each verse travels to another strange place and brings back some unusual things. A fully notated version of the music with all words and hand motions is included. About the Author: John M.
