“It’s Raining, It’s Pouring” a Singable Picture Book by Peter Paul and Mary
Posted on: July 8, 2012
This is a treasure.
I like the publisher’s summery for the book on the copyright page, “Intertwines lyirics to various children’s songs with an indoor game of hide-and-seek.”

Oh, what a sound! What a wonderful sound Peter Paul and Mary create together. And how wonderful to have a vehicle for sharing the sounds and feelings and joy and magic with a new generations of children.

Hi Again! Just one more little note to set expectations…I write most of my posts weeks before they publish, so going forward will do my best and to fill in missing info as time allows! But I’m taking your suggestion to heart and thanks again for taking the time to write.
