Frog Went A-Courtin


We've been listening to this awesome album by Laura Veirs.  Dancing in the house, driving in the car, it's irresistible.  This song was Madeleine's favorite and I LOVE the banjo in it.  So here's the picture book that can accompany it.

John Langstaff
illustrated by Feodor Rojankovsky 1972

According to Veirs' liner notes and Langstaff's introduction a version of this folk song/story is at least 400 years old.
