Alison Krauss's latest collaboration...

Just got this on my Facebook feed this morning…

Alison Krauss – “End of a Summer Storm” from Sandra Boynton’s "Frog Trouble" [Official Music Video] from Crazy Lake Pictures on Vimeo.

Alison Krauss is definitely one of my favorite singers.  She has an angelic voice to go with her highly skilled fiddling.  I like her song selections, which are often kind of sad and dark, but hauntingly beautiful.  Recently, she collaborated with children's author Sandra Boynton to make this song for Boynton's latest book, Frog Trouble.

I don't have kids myself and it's been ages since I was last one, but I might have to buy this just because I like the song.  The others on the album are likely to please me, too.

I see  Boynton is also responsible for Dog Train, another excellent music/book collaboration.  Alison Krauss sung the beautiful "Evermore" for that title and I happen to love that song.

Sheesh, now I wish I had a kid.
