Children have an uncanny ability for singing and memorising songs, which we ought to cultivate from an early age. With appealing pictures and a clever colour-coded style of notation, this book introduces the youngest singers to our treasury of Gregorian chant and prepares them for a lifetime of singing in the Church.
