The good stuff

    This is a "nice" record by a "nice" young woman--squeaky clean.

    Nothing explicit here, whatsoever.

    I rate this title on for age 2 and give it 5.0

    Awesome album

    Many lump Mandy Moore in with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, but I think Mandy Moore shows good taste in choosing the songs she covers. Many of the tracks have a high quality and different sound that I think younger children (especially those constantly surrounded by sugary suggestive pop and angry violent hip hop sounds) should be exposed to. I really like this album and I think it's great for kids and adults alike!
