"Roger Day's songs are really fun to sing along with the kids!
My son has seen Roger Day at his school during a performance and just loved the songs. We got this CD as all the others he has and we love them all. Great to listen in the car!"
Hip, Fresh & Fun!!

"Here's a great album that's not just for children. Roger Day's "Dream Big" does just that...it's both highly entertaining and uplifting. While other children's' music tend to be somewhat one dimensional, these tunes hold your interest and make you want for more! Besides the wonderful production, the variety of musical styles keeps you wondering, "What's next?"... Rock & Roll, Latin, Reggae, even Rap... (Turn off the TV should be a children's national anthem). This is a very hip, sophisticated children's album that everyone will enjoy. First rate!!"
I like this CD as much as my 7 yo

"I have heard the 'Dream Big' song on PBS for a long time and in the back of my mind I kept telling myself to find out who was singing it. Our local public library hosted a Roger Day performance and he was fantastic. I enjoyed it every bit as much as my son. We bought this CD and Rock 'n Roll Rodeo and his DVD after the show. My son dances around his room singing the songs. The lyrics remind me a bit of Shell Silverstein poems...intelligently funny. Roger Day and VeggieTales are prob. the only children's music CD's that I honestly enjoy listening to."
Our favorite CD!

"I can't agree more with North Idaho Dad and his review. He said it so perfectly. Roger Day's music is infectious, immediately changing the mood in my home when I put it on. My girls saw Roger at our local library and met and talked with him. He is every bit as charming in person as he is in his music. We are so thankful to have found such great music to listen to and are anxiously awaiting his return for another mini-concert at our library."
