WE LOVE THIS CD. The story is beatifully told the music is eclectic, with a dash of blues, easy listening, country and just plain FUN. I highly recommend with one caveat ~ she uses the word stupid in the lyrics in the first song. Maybe it's just our family, but I cringe every time she bellows out "I'm just a stupid girl..." I usually lower the volume on that part. I have little ones and it's exactly the kind of terminology they'd pick up. That's the only reason I didn't give a whole-hearted five star rating. Other than that the CD is terrific. Everyone who gets in my car (great entertainment while driving to school) loves it. It's GREAT!

This album doesn't really give the full right to Shenandoah's enticing voice and the beauty of the harmonics, though it is fun to listen to.

As a Seneca mother, I really enjoyed this cd with traditional songs intermixed with Shanendoah's telling of how she "found" her voice. This cd is refreshing with Iroquois ideas represented easily so that even my three year old daughter recognized them -- her eyes lit up when she heard Grandma Moon singing! (I alway KNEW she could sing pretty," my daughter exclaimed.)

I recommend this cd.

My four and a half year old daughter loves this cd, we both do, really. Ms. Shenandoah's voice carries itself into your heart and holds itself there. The songs are haunting and uplifting at the same time. The narration is compelling and interesting. I can't wait to explore more of her work. This is a must-have cd, especially for children.

I used to play this CD for my pre-school class. It was difficult to tell who enjoyed it more... the children or their teachers. It is a great journey and story told through song. Lovely and fun! I am glad to have found the CD available for purchase here. I will use it with my 2nd graders as an interesting example of story telling. Help your students/children develop phonemic awareness(the abilty to hear and recognize sounds) by reading/ playing stories for them!

I first bought this in a shop at Cherokee, NC. Beautiful story of an indian youngster who wants to learn to sing.

Set up more like a story telling session....it is very entertaining as well as soul touching. Joanne Shenandoah never fails to please. She's so very talented.

I was so delighted with this album purchase. Musically, it is beautiful, and Joanne's voice is simply lovely! I recommend it!
