Description
Millions of children have put their hands together and recited the rhyme Pat-a-Cake, Pat-a-Cake. But what if the baker's man were a bebopper instead? Here is lively verse to get young children up dancing and making music to the snap-happy beat. Colourful spreads showing close-ups of children playing various jazz instruments - a horn, a drum, a piano and a bass - alternate with rollicking pictures of children dancing, tapping their feet, swinging and swaying, jitterbugging and more. And then, after the lively party, a song gently lulls the children to sleep.
