From Savannah:"We are enjoying listening to the stories from the CD. We can identify with the one about the squirrels as we had a battle going on for a couple of months with a squirrel family that had taken up residence in our den." -Bob and DianneFrom Birmingham: "Thank you so much for making a CD for adults and children. My six-year-old daughter loves it and it is something we can enjoy with her. It isn't silly like so many kid things and there is nothing to embarrass us. It is a rare find." -TimFrom Tahiti: "OH MY GOD!!!! I started listening to your CD this morning, you are f*%@ing hilarious! I can't wait to share it with my Mom, she'll love it.
