Jingle Bells

Here is another Christmas theemed Little Golden Book & Record I found in my collection. It is Jingle Bells from 1976. I love the artwork in this one, and the first page starts with "On the day before Christmas, the Bear family decided to go for a sleigh ride. Little did they know how exciting their ride would be!". With today being December 24th, this seemed like a perfect post. Merry Christmas to all!

The Whale Who Wanted To Sing at the Met

Here is a neat item I found recently. It is a 45 sized record and book from Disney Education Productions, 1988. This was apparently made for use in the listening center of school classrooms. I don't recall having these records in my classroom, but I do remember having access to various Educational Disney film strips which I loved to play with anytime I got the chance.
Here I present the front and back cover as well as a few of my favorite pages from inside the book.
