Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Carole King's 11 songs for the Really Rosie TV special (it originally aired in 1975 on American TV) came from characters found in Maurice Sendak's books The Sign on Rosie's Door and Nutshell Library. However, 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 favourite for all the right reasons. --Randy Silver
