sleep, my child, sleep

Orqod, Qalbi, Orqod is Immanuel Mifsud's second book for children.

This book is a collection of lullabies which the author composed right after the birth of his son Nikol in 2006.

One can find lullabies sung in every country, including locally. Unfortunately the Maltese traditional lullabies are no longer accessible in rpint form and parents have no choice other than singing English traditional baby songs, or, as Immanuel Mifsud has done when his child was born, compose their
own.

These lullabies are written in the traditional format, with easy rhyme schemes, often repetitive and simple in their imagery.

Greta Borg Carbott's charming illustrations make this publication attractive also for toddlers who have started leafing books.

Orqod, Qalbi, Orqod is another Klabb Kotba Maltin publication, and was out in April 2009.
