This DVD originally came out as two separate VHS tapes and it was a terrific idea to combine them for a value-packed One hour DVD release.

The Little People are a lovable claymation characters and in the Discovering Music portion, Michael, Sonya-Lee, Maggie, Sara-Lynn and Eddie introduce creative ways to listen, sing, and play music in their episodic adventures. Like in most Little People releases, one or two catchy songs are sung. And get this, Aaron Neville beautiful voice introduces each adventure with a Little People theme song verse!

A MUST HAVE in your Little person's DVD library, I'm happy with the fact that claymation is still alive and well...and although each of the 10 adventures runs no more than 5 or 6 minutes, they tend to be well-written and linked to one another.

The way I gauge the practicality of all my vocal text is obviously to see how often I implement the techniques into my 'arsenal' of vocal practices or performances. To make this a book of 5 star calibre rating however I would have extremely liked an accompaniment CD to obtain a better understanding on some of her concepts. In addition, as stated before, the chapters do not go into in depth detail but provide general overviews. Nevertheless, I've been using the Rusch techniques in this book for 5 months now, and not only have I been able to hear a difference in my ability but companions that have had the chance to hear my have noticed a steady improvement. Three sections I found most useful are the Record copying, breath control and health tips on caring for your voice; of which I found the breath control technique being the most effective and quick to in getting results. In addition, this book was fairly entertaining to read as well, as Rusch pulled from her own personal experience without a sense of haughtiness. Definitely a book to encourage all singers on becoming more serious in approaching singing and the performance of singing a bit more professionally.
