Delightful Lullabies & Nursery Rhymes, Sung by Acclaimed Professionals
Lisa Loeb
Hush little baby, don't say a word
Mama's going to buy you a mockin' bird
And if that mockin' bird don't sing
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns brass
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke
Mama's going to buy you a billy goat
And if that billy goat don't pull
Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over
Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover
And if that dog named Rover don't bark
Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart
And if that horse and cart fall down
Well you'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

To read aloud the above nursery rhyme, double left click on the title, or the beginning of a stanza. Next, from the pop-up menu that appears, right click and choose “Read aloud from here.” Voila, you will hear your selection! To move forward or backward from stanza to stanza, all you need to do is click at the start of a stanza. Simple indeed! Try it, if you please!

While you’re listening to the lullaby, you should notice that a new toolbar will have appeared complete with navigational and voice controls. It will be the third toolbar from the top of the page. The toolbar will enable you to start, stop, or pause the audio, and go forward or backwards from stanza to stanza.
Smartphones
To hear this lullaby sung by Lisa Loeb, merely tap the voice box next to her name. To hear it narrated by a TTS voice, follow the steps below:
-
Press firmly on the first word of the lullaby (or any word on the page). When you do, you should feel a thump and see a horizontal menu bar appear. See Photo 1 below.
-
Next, tap the three vertical dots on the right of the menu," then tap "Read aloud." Often that will suffice to get the TTS voice to read the poem in its entirety. Sometimes, however, it will read just the one word you had tapped on. If so, you must tap on that word again, or some other word, then tap on "Select all." When you do, a vertical menu bar should appear from which you should choose "Read aloud." See Photo 2 below.
-
When through listening, you should leave the voice controls atop your display to listen to the other webpages. But before commencing to read another webpage, you must depress some word on it, otherwise it will continue to read the webpage you had just left. Next, tap the center caret of the voice controls. See Photo 3 below.
