Search - Carol Lynn Pearson :: My Turn on Earth

Great for FHE

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Catchy songs from a 70's play to help learn about the Plan through the eyes of a group of children, with the main focus on a girl named Barbara. Some of the songs get a bit cheezy but most of the time are simple, beautiful ways to express the purpose of life. More upbeat than Primary songs and more modern language than the Standard Works. It would be great if it came out on DVD, but until then the soundtrack is great to listen to as a family while doing activities together.
