Latvian Folk Songs. Let's Play, Let's Sing!

“Let's Play, Let's Sing!” invites you with this colorful book. It contains 12 simple and melodic Latvian folk songs, both beloved and slightly forgotten: “I stood, I sang”, “White Bean”, “Silver Drops Rained”, “Pull, little mouse, sweet sleep”, “Aijā, jūžū, bear cubs”, “Knit, children, what you knit”, “I know, I know, but I won't say”, “Laughter is mine”, “Cipu, capu, little squirrel”, “Where have you been?”, “Six little drummers”, “Where are you rushing, my rooster?”. Working with this book will help the child easily and engagingly get acquainted with the wonderful world of music and learn the basics of music-making by themselves.

The book comes with a sound module in the form of a keyboard. To play the song, you need to press the keys marked with the same color and number as the notes above the corresponding word or syllable. The colored circles indicate the white keys, while the black circles indicate the black keys.

The humorous coverage of the book is complemented by Marina Heniņa's bright, playful, modern illustrations. The unusual characters and vibrant colors help to see the seemingly familiar folk songs in a completely new light.
