never been so much fun!

The Book of
Call and Response
You Sing, I Sing
John Feierabend has spent decades compiling songs
and rhymes from the memories of the American
people, in hopes that these treasures will be
preserved for future generations. These books are
a result of his belief that when many generations
share common experiences such as traditional folk
songs and rhymes, it helps them develop a valuable
but dwindling commodity, a sense of community.
Sharing also enables adults to tap into their own
wonderful childhood memories as they pass on
that same repertoire to their children. The calls and
responses are structured so the leader sings one part
and the group sings a contrasting response.
