Another Happy Mouse CD from Kingsway, up to the same high standard of the last one we reviewed. Our advice to anyone with children is if it says Happy Mouse buy it! You won't be disappointed. This time it is more American but that's okay. There are some great old songs like the ancient spiritual "Dem Bones" and a funky version of "The Wise Man Built His House Upon The Rock", as well as some really great songs that we had not heard before. There are some great tongue twisters like "Fishermen Four Fillet Fat Fish". The stories are great with different voices for the different characters and children making encouraging noises in the background - "OOoo"s and "Aaahh"s and that sort of thing. It is done well in a non-cheesy sort of way. There is one medley of stories that are a bit confusing because they don’t go in chronological order. But that is probably the only complaint.
