CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com essential recording Carole King's 11 songs for the Really Rosie TV special (it originally aired in 1975) came from characters found in Maurice Sendak's books The Sign on Rosie's Door and Nutshell Library, but it can easily be argued that the characters never really lived until given voice by King. Ostensibly the story of Rosie--a little girl from Avenue P, who, dontcha know, is a star just waiting to be discovered--there are other delightful characters here, including Johnny ("who lived by himself and liked it like that!") and Pierre (who learns to care after being eaten by a lion). There are also a couple of straight-up educational songs: one an alphabet song (the wonderfully alliterative "Alligators All Around"), the other a calendar song ("Chicken Soup with Rice"). Great music that's delightful for children and parents alike, Really Rosie remains a family favorite for all the right reasons. --Randy Silver --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

CD ReviewsNo Trip Down Memory Lane....Just Good Music Karlton Krill | Iowa City, Iowa United States | 08/28/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "My two toddlers love Scholastics "Where The Wild Things Are" DVD, which features some of the songs on this Carole King CD. It was the DVD that inspired me to purchase this CD, because the songs are infectious and well done. I'm not a fan of Carole King, and this is not a trip down memory lane for me, just some of the best music for kids that I have run across. If you are unfamiliar with these tunes, the original stage production, and/or the Maurice Sendak books from which the lyrics are lifted, don't let that keep you from purchasing some of the most creative and imaginative music available for kids. I am very glad I did. We crank it up in the car have a blast!" Great rare find for Carole King fans Todd M. Waddington | Thousand Oaks, CA | 01/09/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "Not long after her overwhelming success with TAPESTRY C. King collaborated with Maurice Sendak for this 1975 television special. There are at least 5 wonderful songs on this album from the title song to "Chicken Soup With Rice" (classic King 70's sound-fun!) that will have you and your kids dancing in the living room." Memories... ButterflyMommy | Western WA | 01/22/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a must for Really Rosie and Carole King fans alike! I am stunned that the DVD is not out on the market! So many memories this music brings back. I hope to share the movie with my daughter as I have the music she's come to love."
