There's a lot on this album, so many that the track listing on the back of the CD box just says "and many more" - though obviously there are 100 songs, its not until you try to listen to a whole disc full that you realise how much there is. This is the weakness of the collection, there is just so much there that most five to 10 year olds may well lose interest in before getting half way through the first disc - that was the experience of my six year old, and she's used to Bible and Sunday School songs! There is no doubting the quality of the songs overall, they are catchy, with a "poppy" feel and a variety of styles and they keep the Bible verses intact without messing around with them (too much). It is exceptionally well produced and sounds at times like Michael W Smith's earlier material sung by children. Essentially, though, this is a collection of memory verses to music and it does exactly what it promises, gives lots of songs for children to sing and to know. There are further resources such as lyrics available at the Wonderkids website, it could be a good way of getting to know these songs and perhaps using them at Sunday school or church services but it would take some dedication to get through the lot and choose the best of the bunch. Alas, at the risk of sound snobbish, the American accents do get somewhat wearing after a while.
