Rosemary Mitchell
My name is Rosemary Mitchell. I work in London and I sometimes organise festivals for children to sing and make music together. I have collected some of the songs in this book for you because I know that children in Britain enjoy singing them. I hope that you will enjoy them too. The song "Hot Cross Buns" is a traditional one. People eat hot cross buns on Good Friday. Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Sunday. There is a white cross on a hot cross bun.
Hot cross buns,
Hot cross buns.
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns.
If you have no daughters
Give them to your sons.
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns.
