Sarah Dodson-Knight, a contributor to Multilanguage Living Magazine, recently sent us this:
My two-year-old son laughs and dances and does his best to sing along to your songs in French.  Since they're so popular with him, I referred to several of your tunes in a recent article I wrote for Multlingual Living: http://www.multilingualliving.com/2010/07/06/learning-french-in-and-around-the-garden/  .  This article, full of great tips and info, is about learning French in and around the garden.
