Description
"The music of Latin America conbines Spanish guitars, African percussion, and indigenous flutes to create some of the most vibrant music on the planet. The children's songs on this Rough Guide take the lively Latin styles and add stories of ancient kingdoms, mythical journeys, natural wonders, and of course a host of wild animals"--Container.
