If you don't know that genre, get the audio book because they play a lot of these songs in the background and have the sisters singing.

Amal El-Mohtar's "The River has Roots" is wonderful. I read it, then I got the audio book to listen to it with the music.It's about syntax and grammar; the transformative and thus magical properties of words, especially grammar; and it's about British Isles folk music, a genre I know and love.

@mcgraw-hill.bsky.social has been changing textbooks with new 'releases.' No new content except for some online things, but it changes the pagination a lot. In addition, their copyright page for the '2025 release' makes NO mention that in terms of text it's still the 19th edition, published 2021.
