When I was given "Favorite Songs of Babar" for my 16th birthday, I was crestfallen to say the least. I had been begging my family and friends for a true piano for years...I was ready for a grand...a Steinway, Yamaha, or something of the like. I would have bought such an instrument on my own, but I just couldn't afford it.Needless to say, when I received the oversized book with its built in mini-keyboard I was skeptical.Lets just say that Babar taught me his rendition of "SHOO FLY", and it opened the proverbial door to my musical universe. Previous to this book the words had no meaning. With every key I pressed on the 14 note keyboard, the lyrics "I belong to somebody" inched closer to the core of my soul, and struck some very deep chord within me. I was awakened, and felt the enlightenment bathe me like a newborn deer, struggling to free itself from its magenta hued birth-sac. This is no mere book, nor any mere mini-electronic keyboard. It is a gateway for those wishing to be reborn in music, and walk in the footsteps of Babar himself.
