A T-Rex Named Sue

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
A T. Rex Named Sue is the latest example of why parents wish the Music for Little People label would extend its reach to include T.V. for Little People, Movies for Little People, and All Other Manner of Media Imaginable for Little People. There's something in the water at label headquarters, and despite its generally educational flavor, 4-to8-year-olds can't get enough. Here, jazz superstar Al Jarreau leads listeners on a 67-million-year journey back in time to South Dakota, where fossil hunter Sue Hendrickson discovered the titular T-Rex and sent her on her whirlwind journey to Chicago's Field Museum. Dotting the colossal fossil's journey is a genre-rainbow of songs, including the snappy number "Bones" sung by Jarreau, "Sue's Chicago Blues," and "Disco Dino Mite," a mirror-ball twirler that little kids will want to shake a spiked tail to. Excellent content aside, the 3-D cover photo of our multi-fanged new friend is pretty cool, too. --Tammy La Gorce

Album Description
Sue, the most intact Tyrannosaurus rex ever found, was discovered in South Dakota in 1990 and purchased by The Field Museum in Chicago in 1997. Her complete skeleton, on display at the museum since 2000, has garnered worldwide attention. Sue's bone casts are currently touring both the U.S. and Japan.

Lots of catchy tunes and genres from country to Hip-Hop that will have you dancing all over the house and becoming expert paleontologists at the same time.
