Book excerpt: In schools from one end of the country to the other, Ella Jenkins and her work are known by thousands upon thousands of music teachers, music program directors, and (not the least important) by tens of thousands of children. Over the past seven years, Ella Jenkins has conducted hundreds of rhythm workshops in school / assemblies, in specialized music programs, at music educators and camping conventions, and on her weekly Chicago television program. Much of her work has been available to the schools on six long-playing records issued by Folkways. During these years, many teachers and parents have asked for a book of the songs that Ella Jenkins uses in these programs. This is that book— the songs from Ella’s workshops, along with her own notes on how to integrate the songs in a planned music program in school or at home.
