Nancy Raven’s
Nancy Raven Sings Her Favorites
Rosemary Richie, Montessori School Teacher for over 20 years and mother of five.
Television and mass marketing of movie scores have robbed American children of the joy of singing songs from their own rich traditions. Nancy Raven’s fine collections of simple folk songs and musical games from around the world are a treasure every child deserves.
