Dream Songs Night Songs from China to Senegal [With CD]

Beautifully recorded lullabies from around the world are sung in the language of origin along with an illustrated bedtime story--in English, Spanish, and French--about an imaginary journey to unknown lands. Performers Sylva Balassanian, Liu Fang, Hart-Rouge, Connie Kaldor, Carlos Placeres, and Zal Idrissa Sissokho share their culture in offering lovely, warm lead vocals and harmonies, supported by a highly skilled group of musicians playing more than 30 different instruments. The earth-toned, dreamlike illustrations reflect both the subject and country of origin of each song.
