Episode notes

She has written a bunch of what is called renegade children music, children's music. One of the reasons that they took off from a sales perspective in the late 90s, early aughts is she sold them through the book publisher. They were included in copies of books. And so they did not take the same hit that music, physical media took.

To celebrate this year's Children's Book Week, we decided to discuss the work of children's author and illustrator Sandra Boynton, whose board books we both have and which are well known for their fun illustrations and whimsical poetry. Since they're each pretty short we decided to talk about a bunch of them, including:

1. Doggies
2. Dinosaur Dance!
3. Barnyard Dance!
4. Pajama Time!
5. Blue Hat, Green Hat
6. Moo, Baa, La La La!
7. The Going to Bed Book
