This series is a collection of classic Italian songs in the original version, each one accompanied by a big and colorful book that presents the lyrics of each song. Children LOVE these books, but the people who really enjoy them the most are any grown-ups who have spent some time in Italy, or whose parents are first generation Italian. These songs are part of the classic Italian heritage, and the beauty of this project is that they are not remixed, so they bring you right back to your childhood in Italy or to the disks that mom used to play for you... Learn the lyrics by heart and pass the tradition on to your own kids. What a hoot!
A wonderful addition to your Italian library, and perfect for any Italian preschool/kindergarden/school.
And here is my favorite in this series... (I might be a tad biased, though :O)
Viva la mamma
Porta vestiti eleganti e i capelli pettinati dal parrucchiere. Sa sempre quello che bisogna fare e mi insegna le buone maniere. A volte è anche severa, però è sempre giusta. È speciale, è unica, è sincera e affettuosa, è la più bella del mondo: è la mia mamma. Nel CD allegato la canzone di Edoardo Bennato.
She dresses up and has her hair done by the hairdresser. She always knows what we need to do, and she teaches me good manners. Sometimes she is strict, but she is always fair. She is special, she is the only one, she is sincere and caring, she is the most beautiful in the world: she is my mom...
