For over thirty years Joan Goddard Maloney taught singing and voice production to a wide spectrum of students of all ages and from many countries. She has had six children's books published and her songs, stories, and poems have appeared in various anthologies.

This book is a fresh and original collection of 42 songs, with easy-to-play accompaniments, complemented by 35 poems. The songs and poems open up a beguiling and imaginative world of melody, rhythm, language, and feeling. They are all about:

1. Sailboats and Sleigh Rides
2. Whales and Wolves
3. Rainbows and Robins
4. Sandstorms and Snowshoes
5. Bobcats and Butterflies
6. Camels and Kites
7. Horses and Hummingbirds
8. Daydreams, Laughter, and Lullabies

Delightfully engaging illustrations enliven the music and text.
