Nancy Raven's
Sky Bears / Songs for the Holidays
This CD is a lively, thoughtful collection of international winter festival music from two classic Nancy Raven audio tapes: Sky Bears, and Songs for the Holidays. (This collection is available on CD only.) From the bouyant energy in the African Thanksgiving song to the plaintive story of Sz Bbei, the Chinese farmer who cannot go to the New Year's festival, you will find many songs and celebrations for children to enjoy.
