Read, Sing, Play ABC Sing-Along
Words Adapted by Teddy Slater
Illustrated by Liisa Chauncy Guida

This book is filled with adaptations of songs and nursery rhymes.  Last year, I collected information on each of the adapted tunes and the originals.  Lots of great sing-alongs and a fun way to learn the ABCs!
