The Baby Chicks Musicmap Series
Hyun-Kyung Youm.
The Baby Chicks is a popular song in many Spanish-speaking countries. In this beautifully illustrated
book the artist used watercolors for the hen and her little chicks, and then created a collage for
every page. The rough edges and transparent colors add depth and movement, so it's easy to
imagine scooping up one of the fluffy chicks and hearing its little song. The orchestra arrangement,
especially the introduction and bridge, brings to mind the sound of baby chicks moving around the
yard. These lovable chicks give their wings a try in the Musicmap section: when children hear the
oboe playing the melody, they love to follow the chicks in time with the music. You will find the
lyrics in both English and Spanish, with an English pronunciation at the back of the book.

Itsy Bitsy Spider Musicmap Series
Hyun-Kyung Youm.
Research has shown that Itsy Bitsy Spider is the song most often sung by mothers in the United
States to their young children. It is a traditional American finger-play song. In the orchestral
arrangement, specifically the introduction and coda, you will hear a scale that brings to mind a
spider climbing up and down. These notes engage children's imaginations. The illustrator used
computer graphics and multimedia to create spiders that are cute, colorful and appeal to children.

Lightly Row Musicmap Series
Hyun-Kyung Youm.
This song originated in Germany, but other countries have written new lyrics for the tune. In the
United States, the song is about a family rowing a boat and having a happy time. This delightful
mood is reflected in the arrangement of the words on the page as well as by the lovely watercolor
illustrations. The melody is easy for children to follow and the orchestra beautifully expresses the
song's playfulness. Children love to follow the melody in the Musicmap section, with its many
striped fish swimming in the water.
