{"value"=>"<p>This is a hard cover book with attractive art work throughout its contents. It was complied for early primary grade children at camps and in religious schools. The songs are divided into five topical sections; Songs for Every Day; Songs of Bible Days; Songs for Ceremonies and Holidays; Songs for the Synagogue; Songs of <span class=\"emph\">Eretz Yisrael</span> [Land of Israel]. There is an appended section of English translations for each song in the book. The music is given with simple accompaniments, making the book suitable for piano lessons. Transliterated words appear under music lines, followed by verses in Hebrew print text. Line drawing illustrations amplify the texts of songs. Some pages include suggestions, in English text, for pedagogical activities, as offered by the editor-educator. Most melodies have been adapted from liturgical and folk sources.</p>"}
