My 6 yr old and 4 yr old girls LOVE this CD/book combination. The music is fun, the book is colorful. As an adult, this is the best kids music I've heard. Often times I find myself singing the songs without the kids around.

I have a degree in music education, and I love working with young children. However, I HATE listening to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, If You're Happy and You Know It, The Ants Go Marching, and all the other "classic" songs for children. Ugh. All of Sandra Boynton's CDs are wonderful, but this is my favorite. The songs are clever, catchy, and fun to dance to. This CD is great for introducing your kids or students to rock and roll. The kids I've worked with have loved it, and I even listen to it on my own! Unlike "The Hokey Pokey," these songs never get old.

Perfect little CD! Great music to dance and sing along with! We love to listen at home and in the car.

This is a wonderful CD....I think I enjoy it more than my son. Very creative songs and great music. Dog Train title cut is one of my favorites.

This is an outstanding cd for kids!! My 3 year old boy and my 1 year old little girl absolutely love the songs. Their favorites are the broccoli song and the Hootie & the Blowfish song. We dance and run around the house singing to the songs!! We are big fans of Sandra Boyton. She always delivers!

Worth every penny!! It's a great gift too, if you don't have kids of your own!

Ordered this CD as a replacement.

Originally had book and CD, but lost the CD (it will turn up some day!)

Our four-year-old son kept asking for "Dog Train", and so did I.

Songs are infectious and I find myself humming them throughout the day.

You can tell your friends you ordered this for your kid, but I know you will find yourself sneaking a personal fix from time to time.

Check out a sample at Amazon, and you will be hooked.

My kids, ages 2 to 10 all love this cd! Great to sing, dance, act along with! You can just imagine those penquins singing! Such Fun!!!

My kids and I LOVE this CD. This is more of a rock cd compared to the other Boynton CDs (Phila Chickens, Rhino Tap) that are kids music. Blue Moo is more on this level - but 50's & 60's style music. My favorite song is DOg Train - but I guess that is because I love the Blues Travelers. There are other great artists on there - Hootie & the Blowfish, the Spin Doctors, the Bacon Brothers, etc. This is a CD that I can listen to and enjoy. Some of the music that my kids listen to is very child-like which is fine - but sometimes I just can't listen to that kind of music in the car. I need something that won't drive me crazy when I am singing it in my head for the rest of the day.

My now 8mo daughter received this for Christmas. At first, I wasn't as crazy about it as the Philadelphia Chickens CD. However, it's made its way into the vehicle's music rotation and has grown on me. There are very few CDs that my daughter will tolerate, and this is one of them. It took some time for me to warm up to the CD, but most of the songs are amusing. I do find the Cow Planet songs irritating, and consequently they are skipped, hence the 4-star rating.

I have all of Sandra Boynton's CD books, and we listen to them in the car and just laugh and laugh. We particularly love Philadelphia Chicken (the first one we received as a gift when my daughter was a toddler), but Dog Train is now our new favorite as the kids are now starting elementary school. This is definitely rock n' roll and faster then the fun swing-style music of Philadelphia Chicken. All the topics and music are still very kid-friendly and the music is fun for an adult to listen to also.
