Great for a car trip!.......2003-07-13

This CD made a very long car trip lots of fun! The sound of the music along with the stories makes it very lively and listenable, even for the driver! Having been on a short business trip to Japan, I found the "flavor" of the experience bringing back memories of that lovely country. For the kids, it was lots of fun (especially the story about Pikachu's great-great grandfather) and they learned a few Japanese words too. I highly recommend it for families on the go.
