Published by Silver, Burdett and Company, this early music education text is illustrated by Shirley Kite. The volume is bound in green cloth with a blue illustration and titling on the cover, and it measures approximately 10 inches tall. Inside, the book consists of beginner-level music and poetry, complete with piano accompaniments for children’s songs and teaching notes. Notable for its detailed acknowledgments, this edition credits sources and contributors for various poems and musical pieces included. The copyright page shows publication years 1927 and 1928, confirming this as an early example of its kind. The volume shows moderate wear along the spine, some cover soiling, and bumped corners, consistent with decades of use as a classroom resource.
