A set of brilliant little pocket-sized books that are easy to read and follow, and that are quite simply a delight to use with young children,The books are filled with practical ideas to inspire practitioners and children as they enjoy making music together, and the CDs are idea for adults who are unsure about singing themselves. All four books in the series would provide a comprehensive resource for those settings wanting to develop with provision for music making and singing.,The steps of the title lead to a richly endowed musical world.
