"Jonathan Sprout accomplishes the almost-impossible. He makes children's music accessible to adults as well as children. Jonathan himself is a major selling factor behind his music. His warmth, good humor and genuine love of music and children come through. 'Children of the Future' has been a great hit on KID'S CORNER."
