Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Elizabeth Mitchell is a smidge less locked into the no-frills folkie formula on You Are My Sunshine than on her debut, You Are My Flower. In fact, if you subtract the A-list collaborators (and, OK, the dulcimers, mandolins, and human beat boxes), Mitchell starts to look a lot like the female Dan Zanes. The same rootsy sensibility rules both artists' recordings, as does a reverence for tried-and-true folk tunes ("Good Night Irene," "Skip to My Lou") and clean production. More significantly, slivers of Zane-like adventurousness shine through here: "Alphabet Dub" set the ABCs to a reggae beat; "Hey Bo Diddley" tips its hat to the rock & roll pioneer; and the kids are called in to spice up "Crawdad." Counting kids' artists who are genuinely cool still requires fewer than 10 fingers, but with Flower and Sunshine, Mitchell proves she's among the elite. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews
Music parents will like too!
This CD is a releif from other children's CD. It is not only good for the kids but also for the adults. Elizabeth Mitchell has a great voice and her folky style is lovely. Her music (including other Cd's) are well worth the money.

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE
I bought this CD mainly for the song You are My Sunshine, but when I got it, it has so many other great songs on it that I know and love. It's a great CD, although the alphabet song does get fast forwarded...

Wonderful gift!
This is my all-time favorite baby gift! The songs bring back memories for all of us no matter what age. My kids are grade-schoolers and still love singing along.

Heavenly Voice
This is the best CD I have bought for my children. I've played it over and over again for the past 4 weeks and my children ages 4, 2, and 8 months love the melodies. They behave so much better when this music is playing.
