Sing with Me

Our favorite Barefoot Books are the ones with sing-a-long CDs - my daughter loves to sing and dance, and every one of these books has an upbeat, infectious tune.  Several of our favorites, as well as a few on our wish list, are currently on sale.

The charming singalong song on the accompanying CD keeps spirits high, while the rhyming and playful text introduces all sorts of settings and vocabulary-building words.
