From YouTube creators and married musicians Sam Tsui and Casey Breves comes an adventure around the world to celebrate the role of music throughout cultures after one girl asks, Why do we sing?
Lullabies, love songs, caroling, karaoke--

Travel the world and learn about the reasons we sing--to have fun and share our stories; to pass the time and remember times past; and to come together and celebrate!
With gentle rhyming text, this musical adventure around the globe is the perfect introduction to the magical world of singing--from Bollywood to Broadway to your own backyard.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"The authors pose the titular question and, in bouncy, lilting verse, provide brief, thought-provoking answers. It's a simple enough query but a meaningful one. This spirited offering delivers good answers. Following a read-aloud, children should be strongly encouraged to give their vocal chops a hearty workout. We're singing the praises of this joyful charmer." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Rhyming text lists ways music can express and share emotions. Amplifying the text's joyful tenor, Tsui's illustrations feature smiling characters. Concluding with a call to action ("What will YOU sing?"), this sampling of visually suggested styles [is] inspirational." -- Publishers Weekly
