  • It lasted 2 weeks and then the songs would freeze and not play. Our little one loved it and I bought it again in case it was defective.

    The songs are for adults who like clarinets. The voices are not childish but of a regular singer. I personally didn't like it, not anything, not even the images

    Very nice children's book, our little one loves the illustrations and can now press the buttons for the songs by herself. It is lightweight and she handles it well. The material is durable and of good quality. I encountered the following issue, which is why I am deducting one star: I left the mechanism open on 'on' a few times and it started playing songs by itself at night. I intentionally left it during the day to see if it was accidentally pressed, but it still started by itself. This only happened with the song on the first page that has an external button on the cover. Other than that, it's a very beautiful book, we will definitely get the edition with the island songs as well. It would be a good idea to also release it with Pontic songs.

    Good idea, but the implementation is very rushed. The excerpts from the songs are cut off too abruptly, as if there was no time to use the fader or better calculate the chorus to be used. It's a shame, it could have been really worthwhile, even so I hope it gives the younger ages the incentive for their first contact with our traditional songs.

  • Excellent book for young children, we have many music books, jazz, reggae, classical, rock, etc., but this one is the most enjoyable, obviously because of the Greek lyrics.
    The quality is impeccable, thick cardboard pages that don't easily tear.
    Just like in the other music books we have, the song "plays" for a few seconds, just enough, it would be a shame if it lasted as long as the regular song, then we would buy a CD instead of a book.
    We will also buy the other book in the series "our first island books"
