Songs from a Journey with a Parrot: Lullabies and Nursery Rhymes from Portugal and Brazil (Portuguese and English Edition) - Hardcover
Sung in Portuguese, these 30 lullabies and nursery rhymes from Brazil and Portugal invites children on an authentic musical journey exploring the strong cultural ties that bind the two countries. Crossing the Atlantic from Porto to Rio, this musical collection presents the rich common heritage of songs about everyday life, work and play, and courtship and love. The lyrics are presented in Portuguese and translated into English, followed by notes on the origin and cultural context of each song. The accompanying CD features traditional songs that blend samba, modinha, fandango, and bossa nova, and are performed by a group of women, men, and children. The use of several indigenous acoustic instruments further makes this an uplifting, enchanting production that captures the meeting of rich and diverse styles.

About the Author:
From School Library Journal:
Magdeleine Lerasle is an early childhood educator and researcher specializing in teaching language to children, and an author of Songs in the Shade of the Olive Tree. Paul Mindy is a percussionist, singer, composer, and arranger who received the Georges Brassens Prize in recognition of his Brazilian music. He is the musical producer for Songs from the Baobab, Songs in the Shade of the Flamboyant Tree, and Songs in the Shade of the Olive Tree. Aurélia Fronty is an illustrator and textile designer whose work includes I Have the Right to Be a Child; One City, Two Brothers; and Up and Down the Andes.
PreS-Gr 3—Male and female adults and children give voice to these 30 songs and rhymes in Portuguese. The folk tunes include samba, bossa nova, and fandango styles. Some are slow and soft, while others are very lively and upbeat. Musicians give excellent performances on bandolim, accordion, whistles, gourds, and maracas, among the instruments. Song titles include "Boi, Boi, Boi," "Samba, Samba, Samba Lê Lê," and "Teresinha de Jesus." The book features lush paintings depicting scenes from the songs and nursery rhymes, Portuguese and English lyrics, and a paragraph of information about the song or rhyme. This set is an excellent addition to multicultural children's music collections.—Beverly Wrigglesworth, San Antonio Public Library, TX
