[Meris Ruzow <meris...>]

Just thought of another nice Sukkot song - it's called, "Sittin' in My
Sukkah" by Sally and the Daffodils.   Sally Heckelman is the daughter of one
of our former Rosh Yeshiva's here in Albany, NY and she put out this tape
which has several nice tunes for K-4ish.    The name of the tape is "Tap
Your Feet to a Jewish Beat."
