The Riddle Song by John M. Feierabend School and Community - Sheet Music

By John M. Feierabend

How can there be a cherry that has no stone? Find the answer to this and other head-scratching riddles in The Riddle Song, part of a series of captivating picture books based on beloved songtales from the great American folk tradition. In this charming reimagination of a centuries-old classic, artist Lexi Baboukis evokes an idyllic countryside where a squirrel, goose, chicken, and two goats gather to hear a woman play lap dulcimer beneath the open sky. By the end, each animal reveals the delightfully clever answer to one of the song's four puzzling riddles. This musical brain teaser will at once spark curiosity and warm the heart with its whimsical lyrics and melody. And as with the other folk song picture books in the series, The Riddle Song includes the song's history, notation, and a link to a free MP3 download. Another winner collected by John M. Feierabend! John M. Feierabend, Ph.D., 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. He is a leading authority on child development in music and movement, and served as Professor and Chair of the Music Education Department of the Hartt School of the University of Hartford. Lexi Baboukis is an illustrator from Commack, New York. Ever since an early age, Lexi has always loved to create. She uses a rendered style with traditional mediums to tell her stories. This project is just the start of her career, and she is excited for what's to come in the future!
