Christmas CD
"I love this CD!!! It's got the best bunch of Christmas originals I've ever heard, and also some wonderful standards. (Mr. Grinch as an intervention is really funny.) My favorite originals are Every Year (beautiful!) and December (also gorgeous). My husband liked I Love A Man In Uniform best, a big band sexy-type piece. The originals are surprisingly well written and quite varied. The whole CD is a delight." - Bookworm review on Amazon.com
Lullaby CDs
Also available now are her two lullaby CDs, "Little You" and "The Oasis." Parents will appreciate the sophistication and beauty of the songs that so effectively cause children to relax and ease into slumber.
