  "In her trademark pleasing and soothing voice, Kathy Reid-Naiman delights ears young and old with her latest collection of timeless songs and rhymes. Along with first rate vocals and harmonies, a stellar group of musicians provide the wonderful folk roots sounds of a fiddle, steel drums, drums, banjo, bass, cello, harp, harmonica, and kazoo. It's easy to join in on singable songs like "I Like to Rise," "Over in the Meadow," "Shoofly," "Zoom Zoom Zoom," "Maloney the Pony," "Lavender's Blue," and "The Moonman." Children will be happily repeating the spoken word tracks such as "Round and Round the Garden/Knock at the Door," "Slowly Slowly Very Slowly," "Mother and Father and Uncle John," "Here is the Little Boy," and "The Moon is Round." The liner notes provide parents with suggested hand movements, dance moves, and bounces to accompany almost all songs. "Charlotte Bohn   ©2009 Parents' Choice

"Kathy Reid-Naiman's music for young children is unsurpassed. She deserves a top rating in every
category by which one might judge it: superb choice of repertoire both for its own sake, and for the
ages of the children; crystal clear and appealing vocal presentation with a charming sense of humour;
instrumental accompaniment that enhances but does not distract from or overwhelmthe song; and a
deep understanding of the folk roots from which these songs come, even in those she created herself.
If there were a grade higher than A+, she would deserve it." Bram Morrison

"Hundred and hundreds of your CDs have arrived at my library this week (and at libraries across BC) in readiness for next year's Books for BC Babies! I listened to it this morning on my way to work - singing along. It's fabulous Kathy - as I knew it would be. Love your rendition of "Over in the Meadow" and I think the mix of rhymes and songs is just perfect !!! There couldn't be a nicer little present for every new baby in BC than your CD and the new Mother Goose board book. Thanks SO much for working with us on this project"
