Rosemary Wells turns her imagination and talent to introducing the songs of Rodgers and Hammerstein to the very young in a one-of-a-kind collection that showcases sixteen favorites from the musicals Oklahoma , Carousel, The King and L and South Pacific. This collection takes a child's-eye view of classic songs such as "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin', " "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top, " and "Whistle a Happy Tune." These are songs that parents will recognize and children will love, especially as they are illustrated with Rosemary Wells's well-known bunnies, mice, and other adorable animals. A sixteen-page songbook containing the complete lyrics and melody lines for the songs is included with the book.
