Editorial Reviews

Twelve of Ella’s call-and-response songs with simple rhythmic sounds and lyrics in English and Swahili. Inspired by music of communities and Ella’s experiences in Kenya and Tanzania. Includes On Safari, Counting in Swahili, and Yemayah. "This is my favorite Jenkins collection. Jambo ('Hello' in Swahili) has only 9 words...But once you hear it, you'll never forget it...I play this tape when I'm driving--even without the kids. Grade A" - Entertainment Weekly

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish Ella were my neighbor!, December 13, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jambo (Audio CD)
My son perks up every time he hears Ella's voice. She could say or sing anything and it would be heard and learned by my son. Ella, has done more for us than she could ever have known. Every child should have Ella in their library. This album is our all time favorite!
