Spain/Latin America
n 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.
