Breathtaking!

"Wow! If you are a kid or a middle-aged big kid (like me) and like Latino folk music, this album offers a treasury of goodies, ranging from traditional Mexican songs such as "El Chocolate," "La Arana Pequenita," and "La Granja" to a song from Puerto Rico, "El Coqui." The next to last song, "Paz y Libertad," is a hauntingly beautiful anthem to social justice and ecological issues, reminiscent of the early work of Pete Seeger. My only complaint is the paucity of liner notes, as I am left with the impression that Orozco is a fascinating person. The Spanish is easy to understand and should prove popular in classrooms. Having listened to this album, I want to check out his ten-volume "Lirica Infantil. One final word: you may also want to get the accompanying book."
PERFECT CD if you grew up bilingual or just learning

"I grew up bilingual in the states and now have a newborn baby. She loves the beautiful arrangements as well as looking at the colorful pictures in the accompanying book. It's her favorite tape to listen to in the car, even if she's fussy! My mother-in-law (native English speaker) also learned many of the songs and has bought the tape and book for her daughter and other grandchild. I've also bought the CD for my cousin (raised in Guatemala) for her toddler twins. It's really a lovely disc, and he is a great artist to support, I look forward to buying more of his CDs for my little girl."
