Parents Choice Silver Honor Winner
In the tradition of Peter and the Wolf, Magic Maestro Music/Kids™ presents the delightfully entertaining story of a lady lobster who wants to go to the land. David Haslam's passionate and spirited music, combining flamenco and operatic parody, heightens the story's themes of determination and individuality. Discussions about the music with conductor Stephen Simon,
and a 1950's Elvis-style "O Juanita!" sing-along song make this an unforgettable CD for
children ages 6+ and their families.
