"Repetition, funny animal sounds and inviting lyrics make this CD a winner for kids. On “Fluffy Puppies,” my daughter happily barked along, for example, and she was soon repeating the sing-songy “Woodpecker” lyrics and learning basic subtraction at the same time. This is excellent entertainment for younger kids, who will find plenty to sing — and think about — in the strong mix of 18 songs." — Toy Directory Monthly

"Pam Donkin’s 18 original songs inspire all kinds of activity. Whether urging listeners to “Clap Your Hands Now,” inviting them to join a “Kitchen Jam,” or insisting they “Gotta Get the Beat,” Donkin both leads and leaves room for creative movement." — American Library Association Booklist

"This wholesome and fun-filled collection is music made purely for the service of children, yet performed to adult standards of musicianship." — Parents’ Choice, Spring 2007

"A great choice for libraries and day care facilities." — School Library Journal

Friendship Stew simmers with a zesty mix of musical flavors; swing, rock, and folk melodies blend with ingredients from far away places. Then add a pinch of zaniness and a whole lot of sing along fun. It all boils down to sharing - ideas, games, languages, music, feelings and laughter - as we celebrate the differences that make each of us unique. With entertaining, singable songs about friendship, self-esteem, assertiveness, Friendship Stew serves up a rockin' good time, yum, yum! This CD is by Pam Donkin and her Magical Music Express partner Greta Pedersen.
