This is a beautifully illustrated and fun book with selections from each of the three trips the okee dokee brothers took to write their three albums Can you Canoe, Saddle up and Into the woods. It was fun to read the short descriptions of how each of the songs were written. Since our whole family including grandparents , parents and grandchildren sing these songs together often it is fun to have the lyrics of these songs in this lovely book.
This is a fun book with companion CD. We just purchased it after attending an Okee Dokee Brothers concert. My children have enjoyed having the lyrics presented to them in a fun kid-friendly way as they sing along to the music on the CD in our car.
This is a great combination. A CD of great songs with a book of lyrics to follow along. Perfect for kids and they love it. I know what I am typing. I have fourteen grandchildren under the age of eleven.
If your family is ready for road trips, hikes, smores, and campfires, this book/CD combo is for you! The book features the lyrics to the twelve songs contained on the accompanying CD by the Okee Dokee Brothers. Each song, illustrated by Brandon Reese, is in keeping with the music's acoustic Americana style. Within minutes, everyone will be singing along, making the travel miles more fun! Billed for kids, we grandparents enjoy it just as much.
We love the Okee Dokee Brothers music and this CD/children's book does not disappoint. My four-year-old has listened to it nightly since receiving it in mid-May. He loves the colorful illustrations and I love the easy-to-read lyrics!
We absolutely LOVE everything Okee Dokee Brothers in our house. We've seen them in concert twice. This book is awesome because it has the lyrics (and beautiful pictures) to some of our favorite songs. My son (4 1/2) pops this CD into his player, plops down on his bed and read/sings along- sometimes giving me 45min of freedom ;-)We even bought this book for numerous friends; as a way to introduce them to our favorite band!
This book and music totally rock. We practice reading by looking at the book while listening to the music, or just read the book as poetry. And it exposes our kids to "real" music that they actually enjoy (not just computer generated Wheels on the Bus or Monkey in the Middle like most annoying kid songs). The words are giddy, thoughtful, and evoke a sense of wonder and mystery. Even if you don't "love" bluegrass or country, the songs are so well put together and light and catchy that you will probably still enjoy them ---and will definitely give you a break from "Let It Gooooo" haha
I have a 9-year old and a 2-year old and they both love love love this book and the songs - they know all the words and have passionate feelings about which song is the best (Black Bear Mama for one, Jamboree or Jackalope for the other). I love the book and songs too - it is the rare kids' music that i really enjoy having on in the car or at home. I put it on anytime they are getting grouchy in the car, or we just want to be happy. And sometimes I even listen by myself!
