Hush, Little Baby
Illustrated by Brian Pinkney
Greenwillow 2006
Ages: Birth to 3
Topic: Gifts for the New Baby
What an elegant, exuberant version of the southern Appalachian lullaby, Hush Little Baby! Brian Pinkney, a Caldecott honor award illustrator has put this familiar song in a new context. Here we have a picture of an African American family in early 1900's in which Mama has to go off to work and Papa is at home caring for the little ones. The words dance across the pages and the pictures make you smile. What joy this book will bring to all new families! Also, there is a wonderful piano arrangement at the end of the lullaby for you to play and sing to your baby.
