This review is from: One For My Baby : Selections From The Great American Songbook (Audio CD)

This CD was purchased originally for "quiet time" music in my preschool classroom, to listen to something other than kiddee music! It worked great for that, and then when I had baby #4, it became her naptime CD... the first notes of Peggy Lee's "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" calm her right down, a year later! I feel that the exposure to this music on such early years is imprinting her musical tastes for greatness for years to come!
