Getting ready for the big surprise week starting on Monday, and now nursing a sick hubby to boot. Whew! Will we ever all be well at the same time again? That said, remember to enter the Great Monday Give before midnight tomorrow, and enjoy this weekend treat. A big, fat songbook I picked up today at a library sale filled with an amazing collection of tunes, all featuring wonderful (as always) illustrations by the Provensen pair. The songs are in sections: Ballads and Old Favorites, Work Songs, Marching Songs and Songs of Valor, Christmas Carols, Old Hymns and Sprirituals, and feature any and every ditty you think might be included. Enjoy!
