What Parents Need to Know

About Road Trip

Parents need to know that Girl Authority's second album is filled with the same blend of popular cover tunes ("We Are Family," "Car Wash," and "Vacation") along with a few spunky originals as on the group's first CD. The nine tween singers with distinct personalities give us absolutely no offensive content, but the chirpy vocals may make parents' and older siblings' teeth itch by the second or third track. There's also a charming "behind the scenes" DVD included in the package.

Families Can Talk About
