The Grammy® Award-winning Okee Dokee Brothers—Joe Mailander and Justin Lansing—celebrate the beauty of nature and the joys of being outdoors with their family-friendly music in CAN YOU CANOE? AND OTHER ADVENTURE SONGS (Sterling Children’s Books, May 2016).
Aiming to inspire parents and kids to get outside and get creative, the book journeys cross-country in 12 songs, from the rolling hills of Appalachia in the East to the canyons and campfires of the West. Brandon Reese’s lively illustrations coupled with a 12 song CD to sing along with will make this a children’s classic!
As childhood friends growing up in Denver CO, Joe Mailander and Justin Lansing were always exploring the outdoors. Now, as the Okee Dokee Brothers, they have put this passion for the outdoors at the heart of their Americana folk music. They are three-time Parents’ Choice Award winners, and have garnered praise from the likes of NPR’s All Things Considered, USA Today, and The Sierra Club.

Our Thoughts
In our technological world it’s nice to see something geared towards finding joy in nature and being “unplugged”. This song filled book was a fantastic journey outside to find the fun and adventure nature has to offer. I loved sharing this with my class and my own children. It brought back memories of all the fun times I spent outside as a child. This book was fantastic and the CD made singing along to these delightful songs a great family activity. This book and CD are perfect to get your child in the spirit of outdoor adventure this summer!
