So every once in a while I will post a little snippet about a book I absolutely love. Well seeing as this is only the second book I have ever posted maybe I should do this more often. Anyway this one is in honor of my niece Janae. I bought her this book for her birthday and she insists on it being read/sung to her every night before she goes to bed. I was actually introduced to this book when I was student teaching because it has a great Orff recorder lesson that goes along with it, for all you music teachers who know what I am talking about. So without further ado the book is...
Hush by Minfong Ho illustrated by Holly Meade
Not only is it a good bed time story it has the most amazing pictures. My niece loves to imitate all of the animal sounds and she even tries to sing along. Now the melody is not written in the book. I think it was made up specifically for the lesson I mentioned above but if you know me I would be glad to teach it to you as well.
