Debbie Cavalier and her friends have compiled an entertaining and diverse album featuring pop rock musical styles with samplings of disco, classical, and worldbeat. Bullying, self-esteem, and pursuing dreams are some of the themes explored in songs, such as "Walk Away" and "Becca Plays the Bass," which is a lighthearted song about a girl deciding what instrument she should play. Listeners will enjoy unique renditions of familiar stories in the songs "Cinderella," "Snow White," and "Pinocchio." One of the strongest songs on the album, "Wimoweh," begins with a short educational skit about the definition of a cappella. This is a high-quality production that explores a wide variety of vocal sounds and instrumentation and would be a fun addition to most collections.—Caitlyn Walsh, Fayetteville Public Library, Fayetteville, AR
