Beaton, Clair. Mrs. Moon: Lullabies for Babies. Cambridge, MA: Barefoot Books, 2003.

[assignment: write a blurb]

Clair Beaton's intricate textile illustrations in felt, antique fabrics, buttons and embroidery form the backdrop for lyrics to traditional lullabies and bed-time poetry. Half way between a book and a finely crafted quilt, Mrs. Moon will delight parents and caregivers while providing an invaluable resource for learning and sharing bedtime music with the whole family. The accompanying CD features recordings of these songs and poems by Dana Kletter, and is perfect for learning melodies or drifting off into dreamland.
