Books: Song-filled Books

Here's a "brain-wave" I had the other day for my reluctant readers: silly song books.

Here are few we have been using over the past few days:
From Sandra Boynton --

• Philadelphia Chickens
• Blue Moo
• Dog Train
• Rhinoceros Tap

From Christopher Canyon (who adapts and illustrates John Denver's songs) --

• Grandma's Feather Bed
• Sunshine on My Shoulder
• Take Me Home, Country Roads
• Ancient Rhymes - A Dolphin Lullaby

All these books are great because the songs are fun, the illustrations silly and the words easy to read and sing with the included CD's. A great way for my String Bean to practice her reading!
