Overview

Une sélection exceptionnelle de chansons écrites pour les enfants il y a plus de 70 ans.

Pour le folkloriste et compositeur Joseph Beaulieu, toutes les occasions étaient bonnes pour s'amuser au détour d'une rime! Drôles et tendres, les pièces musicales n'ont pas pris une ride. Dans le livre, chaque illustration est une fête de couleurs dans laquelle évolue des grenouilles concertistes et des oiseaux en costumes de bal! Une joyeuse ménagerie qui fait danser et rêver les petits. On peut écouter les enregistrements en balayant le code QR à la fin du livre.

These 12 lively animal-themed songs are separated into morning, afternoon, and evening. Each appears with lyrics and colorful illustrations in the book and is performed by young dynamic singers representing the contemporary music scene in Canada and France on the accompanying recordings. Children can wake up to the sound of a singing lark in “L'alouette du matin” (The Morning Lark), shake it up in the afternoon with a raucous team of circus animals in “Le cirque” (The Circus), and wind down at the end of the day listening to a choir of mellow frogs in “Le concert des grenouilles” (The Frog Concert). The accompanying recordings can be accessed with a QR printed in the book.
