The fictional high-school milieu of Glee—the wildly popular Fox television series that debuted in 2009—is celebrated and dissected in this detailed companion to the series. The songs; the students; and the idiosyncratic teachers all come under affectionate scrutiny in this fanrsquo;s compendium. The familiar dramas that beset the members of the McKinley High glee club; New Directions; have struck a chord with a wide audience that ranges from tweens to 20-somethings and beyond. Glee watchers will relish this analysis of every relationship; fashion statement; insult; and triumph that is plumbed for greater meaning and nostalgic pleasure. The music that is such a key element of the show—a careful mix of show tunes and popular hits—is also thoughtfully discussed. Trivia; in-jokes; profiles of the actors; and a detailed synopsis of the showrsquo;s first season make this an indispensable reference for the growing fan base of "gleeks" that are devoted to this fledgling television sensation.

It was just right; with my daughter playing the piano. and my granddaughters joining in the singing. I couldnt have been more pleased with this book. It has all the traditional carols. as well as the verses. plus a simple piano accompaniment. Perfect for a joyful Christmas carol sing.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great giftBy Donalene S. PoduskaMy daughter and son-in-law asked for a carol book. hoping that I will give them one of my beautiful ones. I wasnt ready to give them one of those but got one that would have the music and words that they wanted. They were pleased with the gift!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Poor song choicesBy ShanZThis only had a few of the popular Chistmas songs. There were many unknown and overly difficult songs. I wish there had been more information on the contents.
