Sharon Lois and Bram:
Featuring Sharon and Randi
This music from this beloved trio of entertainers has been enjoyed by parents and children alike for many years. Sharon and Randi joined White Pine Books for a sing-a-long and story time to celebrate the launch of their new book One Elephant Went Out to Play, a musical story about a magical spider web. Jungle animals and kids in costume join in the fun on the web, including a glamorous giraffe, a cranky crocodile, a silly, smiley snake and five monkeys. After the 10th animal is invited onto the web, EVERYONE is invited to the party — but is the web strong enough?
