I agree. The songs was one of the highlights, but like much of the Saturday show, I really thought Friday's performance was better. But, then again, I was feeling very bad on Saturday, so maybe that's why I think Saturday wasn't as good of a show.

I think people really make mistakes in assuming that "children's books" are just for children. Good books are like good music--they cross generations.
