In this enchanting collection, favourite bed-time songs for children – ''Rock-a-bye, Baby'', ''Bye, Baby Bunting'', ''Golden Slumbers'' – mingle with less familiar lullabies from around the world. Added to these are beautiful lyrics to sing or read to your little ones, from Brahms''s ''Lullaby'' to Gershwin''s ''Summertime''; from Shakespeare''s lullaby for the fairy queen Titania to Langston Hughes''s lullaby for a ''night black baby''. Here, too, are nursery rhymes, and poems for older children by a wide variety of authors – Walter de la Mare, Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, T.S. Eliot and Ogden Nash, to name but a few. Whether the intent is to soothe or to amuse, there is something here for every mood, every child, and the child in every adult.
