REVIEWS

”This is a delightful and imaginative collection containing five stories, 17 poems and a lively theme song accompanied by a fiddle, banjo and spoons.  The poems and stories flow from one to another with lovely musical interludes punctuating each segment.  This tape provides a perfect way to fill young heads with words, wonderful words.”
