All aboard! For kids with a yen to travel farther than over the hill and through the woods to grandmother's house, Papa's Dream is a welcome invitation. Narrator Papa Lalo, Chicano rockers Los Lobos, and a passel of grandkids pile into a Mexico-bound flying balloon in celebration of the grandfather's birthday. Tots, tykes, and preteens will delight in the adventures of this flying family, and even moms and dads will appreciate the muscular feel-good rock of Los Lobos as they bop through contemporary stalwarts "La Bamba" and "Wooly Bully," as well as a handful of traditional Mexican folk tunes. --Paige La Grone

4.0 out of 5 stars "Papa's Dream" - Los Lobos; Mama's Review, February 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Papa's Dream (Audio CD)

"Papa's Dream is a lively tale about a family that goes on a special trip. It is quite suitable for the classroom of the Beginning Level Learners of Spanish. Notice the accompanying audio CD or cassette, filled with entertaining music, as well as narration. This cassette or CD will be particularly useful for the teacher who may not be themselves fluent in Spanish.

This book and accompanying cassette or CD will enhance your students learning as they are entertained and educated in the Spanish language.

Great job - especially on the music!!

If you've ever been on a long trip with a four year old and had to endure Barney CD's or any number of mind numbing Disney CD's, this is your answer. Great rock n roll your children will love to sing along to. (Try the La La La song if you don't believe me.) What else would you expect from the our best American band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Children's Celebration of Latin Culture, January 26, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Papa's Dream (Audio CD)

I am the music buyer for a small children's store and I always try to keep this one in stock. We just resorted our demo tapes and I was thrilled to rediscover this one. We play it in our store all the time because it's fun for our young guests and we adults enjoy it so much too.What a great way to celebrate Latin culture!
