"Kathy Reid-Naiman's music for young children is unsurpassed. She deserves a top rating in every category by which one might judge it: superb choice of repertoire both for its own sake, and for the ages of the children; crystal clear and appealing vocal presentation with a charming sense of humour; instrumental accompaniment that enhances but does not distract from or overwhelm the song; and a deep understanding of the folk roots from which these songs come, even in those she created herself. If there were a grade higher than A+, she would deserve it." Bram Morrison - Merriweather Records Ltd.
