Moving Makes Me Magic

On this 1979 recording, music educator Yvonne Cheek Johnson is joined by artist and author Betty Mosley and Mosley’s daughter Joella, in a collection of movement songs that will excite children as well as their teachers and parents and that people of all ages will enjoy. The best-known tracks are the traditional nursery rhymes “Mary Mack” and “Hambone” and the Norwegian fairy tale “The Three Billy Goats Gruff,” complete with bleating goats. The closing track is the story “The Adventures of Peter Bunting.” Performer credits, story text, and song lyrics are included in the liner notes.
