Title: excellent introduction to children's oral tradition
Product review: This is a wonderful review of the oral traditions of children. I'm a father of five and was astounded to hear my children chanting the same grade school rhymes that I used to chant. How did they learn them? They didn't read them in this book I assure you. These rhymes are passed down from child to child in an unbroken oral tradition. As a psychiatrist it gives me greater insight into their dynamic development as well. The book could have had more commentary about such dynamic issues. I dare say it almost misses the profound import of these oral traditions.
