My class loves to read and listen to Penelope''s, "The Rain is Coming" and "Dinosaur Dance". Connie Spolar, 2nd grade teacher.
This CD and its accompanying lyric coloring book is excellent. Penelope Torribio''s voice and music is joyous, vital, and energizing, while the book illustrations by Suzanne Ross are beautifully realized and perfect visual companions to the songs.
The educational aspects of this musical for children are multifaceted. Besides the environmental and ecological insights there are relational lessons here as well. Most of the songs have a great deal of humor and are celebratory and empowering such as the inspiring "Guardians of the Earth". I highly recommend this CD and book for children from toddler to teen.

Dear Ms. Torribio, I really enjoyed your songs and show. Me and my friends think your voice is beautiful. You were really nice for letting people go up and help. I hope I can read your books. I wonder how you can change a voice to another when you work with puppets. You made my school and me have a lot of fun. My mom loves the guitar too. I play the violin with two of my friends.
