5.0 out of 5 starsBreathtaking!
By Daniel L. Berek on October 8, 2001
Format: Audio CD
Wow! If you are a kid or a middle-aged big kid (like me) and like Latino folk music, this album offers a treasury of goodies, ranging from traditional Mexican songs such as "El Chocolate," "La Arana Pequenita," and "La Granja" to a song from Puerto Rico, "El Coqui." The next to last song, "Paz y Libertad," is a hauntingly beautiful anthem to social justice and ecological issues, reminiscent of the early work of Pete Seeger. My only complaint is the paucity of liner notes, as I am left with the impression that Orozco is a fascinating person.
The Spanish is easy to understand and should prove popular in classrooms. Having listened to this album, I want to check out his ten-volume "Lirica Infantil. One final word: you may also want to get the accompanying book.

5.0 out of 5 starsPERFECT CD if you grew up bilingual or just learning
By A Customer on July 11, 2000
Format: Audio CD
I grew up bilingual in the states and now have a newborn baby. She loves the beautiful arrangements as well as looking at the colorful pictures in the accompanying book. It's her favorite tape to listen to in the car, even if she's fussy! My mother-in-law (native English speaker) also learned many of the songs and has bought the tape and book for her daughter and other grandchild. I've also bought the CD for my cousin (raised in Guatemala) for her toddler twins. It's really a lovely disc, and he is a great artist to support, I look forward to buying more of his CDs for my little girl.

5.0 out of 5 starsdual language
By A Customer on October 14, 2000
Format: Audio CD
I am originally from Mexico and I want my 3 year old son to be bilingual like me. He loves to listen to this cd and sings along everytime I put it on. I also teach second grade in a dual language program, and my students both English and Spanish speakers join in and sing. I recommend this cd and many of the others by Jose Luis Orozco to anybody teaching Spanish to children!

5.0 out of 5 starsFantastic...BUT no liner notes/lyrics!
By Emily A. Moore on October 31, 2007
Format: Audio CD
I love this CD--the vocals are clear, in-tune, and the spirit that comes through is so joyous. My 3-year-old loves listening to it as I do. (This is a major accomplishment when you're talking about music targeted for kids, as all parents know; most "kid music" is so inane and badly produced it's like listening to nails on chalkboard.)

BUT. What I wish I'd known before I'd bought this CD is that it comes with no liner notes. None. No lyrics whatsoever! A huge lack given that I (like most folks?) bought the CD to help boost our Spanish comprehension.

I eventually found the companion book and ordered it, but it would have been great to have known *beforehand* that the CD is actually half of a set.

3.0 out of 5 starsA little disappointed
By dm15 on October 26, 2012
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
I like that he clearly articulates his words in the songs and the song choices are very nice however I was VERY disappointed that the entire CD was sung as if to only give a preview of all the songs. He only sings 1 or 2 verses of each song. Pay attention to the fact that there are something like 27 songs on this CD... that says it all. For this reason I wouldn't recommend buying this CD.

5.0 out of 5 starsThis is a great CD!!!
By E. Kenneally on March 6, 2002
Format: Audio CD
I bought this CD for my nephew when he was about 5 months old. He is alomost a year now, and he loves it!! He listens to it everyday. As soon as the music comes on, he starts to smile and dance! The songs are very catchy, and you will probably find yourself singing along! It is very hard to resist!

5.0 out of 5 starsDe Colores was terrific
By A Customer on June 22, 2002
Format: Audio CD
It brought me back to when I was a child. The lyrics varied a bit, but I grew up in Costa Rica whereas the song writer/singer is from Mexico. Somehow I think his is the original.

3.0 out of 5 starsNo Written Lyrics
By Elizabeth Blue on January 26, 2014
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
I bought this CD because I am learning Spanish using Rosetta Stone and I wanted to supplement my learning by listening to children's songs in Spanish. I figured that they would use simple language, repetition, and basic concepts. The songs are fine, but there are no lyrics (in any language) included with this CD. I can not understand the pronunciations well enough to even accurately look up the Spanish words in a dictionary. As most CD's do include the lyrics, I was surprised and disappointed that this one did not.

The songs are very annoying...
Example: tengo un dedo chiquitito tito tito tito tito. Repeat that times 10Xs and you get an idea. And that's pretty much every song. Read more
