Product Overview
Compiled and edited by Roy E. Grant, Georgia Retardation Center, Athens, Georgia. Music with which the senior citizen can associate can often be used to reach the most withdrawn. Studies have shown that music produces a happy feeling even in nursing homes and hospitals, thus providing a better atmosphere and warmer feelings toward the staff and each other. This book is set in large type to accommodate reading without undue strain, and includes songs used in different parts of the country that are familiar with this age group. It is intended for use in social gatherings for the sake of having a good time and for therapeutic purposes. The songs have been carefully edited, made simple, and transposed to keys suitable for this age group, for both men and women.
