The irrepressible and tireless Shari Lewis is back with another winning program for children aged 3-8. And this one has a framing device that most parents can readily appreciate. For nearly an hour, Shari and her lovable friends-Lamb Chop, Charlie Horse, and Hush Puppy- provide wonderful entertainment while mom catches an extra forty winks. Shari and the gang sing songs (quietly, of course), including a rap version of "Rip Van Winkle"; tell stories such as "Sleeping Beauty," which includes audience participation sound effects (quietly, of course) for various parts of the story; trade jokes; and play games. As usual Ms. Lewis emphasizes audience participation, and all of her material is geared toward having children exercise both their bodies and their minds. As an added bonus (especially for those moms or dads who wake up a couple of minutes earlier), there's an excerpt from the original 1959 Shari Lewis Show in commemoration of Lamb Chop and Shari's 20th anniversary together. Great fun for all, this excellent buy is highly recommended. (Available from most distributors.)
