2.0 out of 5 stars "folk" is a subjective term, July 8, 2005

By	Lucy C. Garrity (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Unfortunately, this book is such an eclectic collection that I was unfamiliar with most of the songs. Not being an officianado, I was looking for songs to play and sing with children and was disappointed to find such sparse material to work with. This collection may be better suited for someone who has studied folk music, rather than someone less knowledgeable.
