About This Book
A parent should reach for this book when the family needs a dose of pure, uncomplicated silliness and joy. This book isn't a single story but a collection of twelve wonderfully absurd songs, each presented with Sandra Boynton's iconic illustrations. The lyrics, which are the text of the book, cover topics like a frog with a crush, a dog who loves his truck, and a parrot who wants a cracker. It's a celebration of creativity, humor, and the fun of music. Perfect for ages 3 to 7, this book and its accompanying CD (featuring famous country artists) offer a fantastic shared experience, encouraging families to sing, dance, and laugh together, making it an ideal choice for car trips or a lively read-aloud session.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The title's mention of "Pretty Serious Songs" is entirely ironic. The "trouble" is comical and lighthearted. For example, the frog's romantic woes are treated with humor, not genuine pathos. The approach is secular and focuses on pure entertainment.
