Description
A bilingual singable book with a traditional nursery rhyme retold and reimagined. Sing along in English or Mandarin with Pinyin. Easy-to-follow colored keys guide enables children to play the song on the piano.
A little girl sets out to sea on an adventure despite challenges ahead.
What does it mean to retell and reimagine a nursery rhyme? Author Isabelle Engler dug further into the lyrics and broke tradition - what if the fisherman were not a grown man, but a little girl out on an adventure? What emotions do we experience when we face potential failures? How do we encourage our children to continue seeking challenges we know they can overcome?
The singable spread and score make learning English, Mandarin, and music effective all in one book. With a mission to empower kids through music, this book was designed to bring emotions and the world into illustrations in order to prompt conversations between caregivers and kids.
