The cuddly characters from Shushybye books, music, toys, and apparel, all designed for preschoolers as a means to help get them to sleep at night, appear onstage (both as actors in costumes and in CGI-animated sequences) to entertain a live audience full of enthusiastic little ones in this engaging 17-song concert. Accompanied by a live band and a pair of friendly vocalists, the characters Snoozles, Dozie, Zeez, and Conductor McCloud sing such bedtime tunes as "We Love the Shushies," "Now's the Time We Go Shushybye," "Shushybye and Goodnight," and "The Dream Wish Song," serving up Beatlesque melodies that parents are likely to enjoy as well (though adults may have to ask their children to explain Dream Boxes and the Shushybye Train to them). DVD extras include a bonus video on the Shushie Dance and downloadable song lyrics. Highly recommended. Aud: P. (T. Keogh)
