A Parents' Choice Gold Award "...a fizzy, funny, witty delight...Wonderful, creative fun for ears of all ages"

Product Description

Clever lyrics abound with goofy puns, zany word plays, and tongue twisters sure to delight the upper elementary ages. With inventive tunes and fabulous guitar work, Nancy shares her hilariously upside down perspective with sensitivity to values such as personal integrity and ecological awareness. As an alternative to popular culture so often peddled to this age group, “Escape of the Slinkys” can’t be beat. Ages 7-12

This review is from: Escape of the Slinkys (Audio CD)

During a morning work-out, I listened to Nancy Tucker's latest CD, "Escape of the Slinkys". I had to control how loud I was laughing since I was at the YMCA and there were lots of serious looking fit folks around. It's smart and funny. Nancy focused on puns, zany word plays, tongue twisters and endless good humor. She is way on top of the art and craft of songwriting and at the same time, clearly in to having fun. Song titles include "Hats on Bees", "Exceptional Piece of Toast". Firefighters Fighting Fires" and a real favorite, "The Laffy Dullabye", which makes fun of that centerpiece of night-time propaganda, the lullabye. It deserves the PARENTS CHOICE GOLD AWARD it won. This CD is not a low common denominator and Nancy appropriately suggests it for kids ages 6 and up. Well, at 53, I'm definitely "up" and still laughing. Order your own copy and bring some laughter to your next car ride, workout, or home listening with the family!
