Beautiful, practical, easy September 29, 2008
Angela (London, UK)
I ordered this product because I simply wanted the guitar chords for the "De Colores" CD. When the book arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the it is a beautiful collection of -- not only the music (guitar and piano) -- but also of illustrations. It is really sweet, giving extra incentive to those wanting to learn to play the songs... and likely fun for kids to look on or use themselves. The songs are simple to play and great to sing. I'm a guitar novice, but I'm making good mileage with this book and its CD.

This is a winner that is worth buying for any child that is interested in music, rhythem or such. This book contains the words and music to follow and you can also buy the cd. Recommended.
My boys love this book. February 8, 2008

This is a wonderful book of popular songs in Spanish, which my triplet boys latched onto immediately. The songs are very engaging, and each page has lovely artwork. I speak Spanish, and my boys were born in Spain. I have been trying very hard to help them maintain a little Spanish, and this book has been very helpful. It doesn't come with a CD, but you can easily learn the tunes of the songs if you know how to read music. And even if you only speak rudimentary Spanish, I think it's possible to learn the songs and enjoy them. br / br /This book quickly became the boys' favorite bedtime routine. I hear them singing the songs during the day as well. I highly recommend it. br / br /

Beautiful pictures, and easy-to-follow tunes. A must-have for anyone who has children whom they are introducing to Spanish, and very useful for us adults as well!
