In this traditional tale, Nyame the African Sky God needs a big drum for his festival. He’s heard one he likes very much, but it belongs Osebo, the fierce and powerful Leopard. Nyame orders the animals to fetch it to him. It’s not going to be an easy task. However, the reward for the one who succeeds will be very special. The powerful chanting and drumming accompanying this Ashanti tale has earned it the distinction of an ALA Notable Children’s Recording.

“This African folktale read-along comes alive with the resonant voice of the Sky God and the background sounds of the jungle drums and chants. After the elephant and ostrich fail to defeat the leopard, the persistent turtle outwits his adversary in this satisfying, rewarding and exciting recording. The flip side encourages children to empathize with several African animals and to imitate the voices and characters in the story.”

With oversized text that bounces to the music Ella Elephant is fun to watch and listen to. This book is a wonderful introduction to the different sounds of instruments played by such animals as a giraffe, cat, mouse, crocodile, owl, duck, and of course an elephant. Some of the great “jazz masters” introduce each of the instruments. It’s another terrific music book from the Baby Loves music collection.

Tall tale is right! Big Annie is a larger-than-life heroine – a Creole flatboat captain who uses her amazing strength, and the help of some animal friends, to pull a boatload of toys through a terrible storm one Christmas Eve long ago. The soundtrack captures the sound of New Orleans jazz, and the rhythm and power of the American work song. Your children will quickly be helping Annie by singing her song, “Heave Ho! Pull the boat Big Annie!” A “big” addition to your holiday library and all year long.

“I’ve got to tell you this is an awesome idea! What I liked about Mobistories is that, rather than just presenting another movie format, it looks like you are reading a book. They start with a front cover and end with a back cover. The “pages” are turned, so it looks like reading a book. The words are printed, as well as read aloud. This re-enforces the words for the child who is reading along.”

“This is a boy whose name is Mike. This is Mike’s pride and joy his bike’” So begins the inspiring tale of a boy, his best friend, and the adventurous relationship that many children begin when they are young and continue during the rest their lives! Illustrated in a retro-contemporary style, Mike and The Bike rhymes its way through Mike’s choosing of his favorite toy – his bike (of course!) – and follows him off on adventures around the world and back home, where he goes to bed wearing his helmet, ready for the next day. Mike and The Bike is the first children’s book written by Grammy Award winning guitarist and songwriter, avid cyclist and riding partner of Lance Armstrong, Michael Ward. Mike and the Bike came into being, appropriately enough, while Michael cycled near his home in Los Angeles. Includes a foreword by 6-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong with music by Michael and his son, Tennessee Ward, and narration of Mike and the Bike by the “Voice of Cycling,” Phil Liggett.
