Sail Away With Books!
Sail Away With Books!
(By Sally Meyers. Sing to the melody of “Alouette.” If you need help remembering the tune,
visit www.kididdles.com/mouseum/a014.html for a sound file. This is an easy song for younger
children to learn because of the repetition. Older children can fill in countries, cities, or states of
their choosing by substituting any three-syllable word in addition to the words suggested.)
Book a voyage, sail across the ocean,
Book a voyage, read along with me!
