A classic American folk song, perfect for Halloween.
Follow the old woman, all skin and bones, on her quest to tidy
up the local graveyard. Perfect for home, the classroom or the
music class. The trick to this song is to sing each short verse
quieter and quieter until you reach the 'surprise' ending. Once
your child learns the secret of how this song works, they'll
delight in sharing it with others.
Sheet music and a link to a sing-a-long video of the song are
included in the book. About the Art
"The characters in 'Skin & Bones' started their life as
white scratches on a black board. At first their lives seemed bleak
and colorless, but then I introduced them to a few pens I know.
Freed from the page by a pair of scissors, they all took flight for
a new world via a high-resolution scanner where they plied their
skills on the stage in some really wonderful digital animation
software. Their thespian ranks were joined by some vector-based
objects and characters and arranged into scenes. From there the
characters seemed to come alive, with a little nudging and prodding
of course, and I was able to get some great snapshots of them in
action." M. Ryan Taylor About the Music
Taylor recorded and released the classic children's song, 'Skin
& Bones, ' on his first children's album, Thirteen for
Halloween. On the album, the accompaniment is dominated by the
xylophone and marimba, instruments long associated with bones and
skeletons in music and the movies.
