Evaluation:
This multimedia-resource includes both book of resources and CDs of fifty songs. With over 700 songs included in the book, the songs are listed by alphabet. This book is great for parents, teachers, and librarians, but does not include age ranges though the book itself is directed to the early years. The songs include lyrics as well as a theme connection such as “parts of the body” which is great for connecting it to a storybook or other activities.

Annotation: Raffi sings very singable, fun songs that are fun for the whole family.

Evaluation: Raffi is the KING of children's music. After all these years there is nothing like him still! He's fun, and developmentally appropriate without being condescending. Though I was first introduced to him through my baby brothers (who had every lyric memorized from a very young age), I still have some of the lyrics memorized. I still share it will my read aloud children and it is still just as beloved to all! A must hear for your little ones, this is the key to supporting many developmental stages. It also supports literacy equally, while all the time being the best fun ever!!
