Julie Andrews and her daughter, Emma Walton Hamilton, have
hand-selected a wonderful mix of their most cherished poems,
songs, and lullabies in this rich and diverse poetry
collection. Brought to life with James McMullan's stunning
watercolor paintings, this volume features nearly 150
treasured works, including beloved classics and modern
favorites from Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, Jack
Prelutsky, Shel Silverstein, Rodgers & Hammerstein, and more
- twenty-one of which are theatrically and playfully read
aloud by Andrews and Hamilton on the accompanying
CD
Andrews introduces each of the nine themed
sections with intimate stories and family memories, offering
readers a glimpse into her world and her personal connection
to many of the selections. There are even a number of
special poems written by the authors themselves as well as
contributions from close family members.
This deluxe
anthology is bound to inspire an early love of poetry and
song and become a classic for families to grow with and
treasure throughout the years.
