Musical Wisdom Songs and Drawings for The
Description:
MUSICAL WISDOM is top quality, meaningful, & up-to-the-minute! It touches the very core of young experiences & emotions, from the new kid at school to communication with parents. With music, poetry, & drawings, this book speaks to the heart. Ideas that are sometimes difficult to express, are translated simply & clearly in ways that both children & adults will enjoy. The 26 original songs include lyrics, music, & chord charts for the guitar. The corresponding picture-stories will remind adults of their own childhood. Children will see that the things they are facing now, are similar to what the adults in their lives have experienced. Tom Robson, while working as a custodian in a small elementary school, began sharing songs that he had written for children. As a result of those visits he now spends his time with young people, their parents, & their teachers sharing his songs & stories about families, & schoolday experiences. MUSICAL WISDOM was written while Tom, & his wife Darla, were raising their daughters, so the songs provide a delightful & often intimate view of the struggles we all face during the process that Tom calls, "growing up with our children."
