Comments on The Christmas Star:
"Tears filled my eyes several times as I listened to the CD that accompanies this extraordinary song book. It was not just that the music and singing were so very beautiful, nor was it that the songs were so well chosen, nor even that they brought back some of the best memories of my life. It was that Mary's music is all these things and something much more as well - The Christmas Star is quite simply a sun-drenched outpouring of hope and love. What could have been just one more nice collection of Christmas carols has, through her healing artistry and deep sensitivity, come into the world a gleaming, golden gift of life offered to our children and their children beyond. I can't think of a better gift for your children, your family, yourself - a true celebration of the Light of Love kindled in the darkest season of the year!"

These wonderful songbooks and CD sets were created as a musical aid for parents, educators and caregivers of children. All the songs in the songbook are on the CD to help you learn them! Mary Thienes-Schunemann's voice is pure and clear, using no special effects. They are pentatonic, traditional and original melodies to meet the needs of children today. For both the confident as well as the bashful singer.
Appropriate for all ages of children & adults!
