Album Notes

Aesop For All Ages NAPPA 2004 GOLD Winner! (National Parenting Publications) WINNER OF The 2003 SILVER PARENT'S CHOICE AWARD!!! BEST CHILDREN'S ALBUM 2003, 2nd runner up, Just Plain Folks AESOP for all ages is an engaging collection of songs based on the familiar fables of Aesop, such as The Tortoise and the Hare, The Country Mouse and the City Mouse and The Goose and the Golden Eggs. Conceived, co-written (with her father, lyricist H. C.

REVIEWS

This CD is a rare gem...engaging for children, listenable for adults
author: Jill Suttie
The CD is a creative retelling of Aesop's fables. My 2 1/2 year old and 6 year old are both addicted to it, and want to listen to it every day. They are learning the fables through the music and enjoying the tunes, singing along. Luckily, the tunes are not the usual children's fare (so chipper you want to strangle the artist), but are catchy and good enough for an adult to enjoy. In a word the CD is fabulous and a must-buy!!

I got this for my 4-year-old son and expected to have to close the door to his room when I played it. To my surprise I find myself playing it for the whole family in the living room. It's well produced and great listening. I highly recommend it.

As a producer I applaud Anne Nachtrieb Zesigers production quality. As a musician I appreciate the complexity and deftness of her skill. As a singer, I just love to sing along to these great tunes.The beauty of these compositions will last as long as the fables themselves.
