The Disney Sing Along Book

awesome lead sheets to kids' songs from kids' movies

I cannot comment on the playability of the music here, but the book, illustrated with black and white film stills, itself offers an interesting selection of lyrics to Disney films from BAMBI to POCAHONTAS (and includes 2 songs from LADY AND THE TRAMP). Fanning also provides a short introduction to each film. The book was updated in 1997 to include songs from TOY STORY, HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, and HERCULES. Songs included are as follows: Contents: Love is a song -- Zip-a-dee-doo-dah -- Ev'rybody has a laughing place -- Lazy countryside -- Pecos Bill -- Lavender blue (Dilly dilly) -- A dream is a wish your heart makes -- Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo (The magic song) -- I'm late -- The unbirthday song -- You can fly! You can fly! You can fly! -- Never smile at a crocodile -- Your mother and mine -- The ballad of Davy Crockett -- The Siamese cat song -- Bella notte -- Mickey Mouse march -- Annette -- Quack! Quack! Quack! Donald Duck -- Theme from Zorro -- Once upon a dream -- Cruella De Vil -- Let's get together -- It's a small world -- There's a great big beautiful tomorrow -- A spoonful of sugar -- Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious -- Chim chim cher-ee -- Winnie the Pooh -- The wonderful thing about tiggers -- The bare necessities -- I wan'na be like you (The monkey song) -- Under the sea -- Part of your world -- Gaston -- Be our guest -- Beauty and the beast -- Arabian nights -- A whole new world -- Hakuna Matata -- Can you feel the love tonight -- Colors of the wind -- Just around the riverbend. The second edition adds the following: You've got a friend in me -- Out there -- A guy like you -- Go the distance -- Zero to hero.

This is a great book for families with kids. The songs arenicely presented, with introduction to the movies.I borrowedthe book from the county public library, and we had a lot offun by playing the piano and singing the songs.
