Peter makes every tune sound fresh and irresistible, and Terry Widener’s appealing pictures capture the spirit of each song, from the wild waves and rocking boat of “Sloop John B” to happy dancers ready to “Skip to My Lou.”

Lovely folk songs for little folk and adults alikeby Anonymous

October 26, 2009: I love the option of listening to this children's music CD sung in normal adult voices and accompanied by actual instruments - no silly screaming or adults putting on baby voices. They are mostly fairly chilled songs with a couple of upbeat ones. The song book is great and has chords and melody so you can play along at home. I think anyone who likes folk music would like these renditions. There are a few others in the series too which I also like.
