PARENTS' CHOICE AWARD WINNER 2004! The Whistling Pig Presents Songs From The Heart has just won the prestigious Parents' Choice award! Written and performed by Doctor Doug with the Junkyard Band and Chorus, including award-winning Chicago musicians, Songs from the Heart engage children and anyone who ever was one! It's music for the whole family. With catchy melodies you'll find yourself humming all day, these are songs about friendship, keeping a positive attitude, flights of imagination, helping others, self-acceptance, and songs just for fun and even going to sleep! The lyrics and rhymes are bright and memorable, the styles vary from folk to country to Broadway, and the instrumental back-up is refreshingly sophisticated and engaging. Go to our website, www.thewhistlingpig.com, and print out the lyrics so you can sing along!
The songs are from the World of The Whistling Pig, warm magical tales that stimulate the imagination and entice learning. The Whistling Pig is the main character in the Tales of the Gullywhumpus, a series of stories involving a community of characters who live in the Smallish Woods together.
The creators are Doug & Bobbie Stuart. Dr. Doug, a Ph.D. in English linguistics, is a writer of songs and stories, a singer, and a performer on various folk instruments. He guides children of all ages in playful exploration of words and meanings. Bobbie, with a Masters Degree in arts education, is an artist and teacher who developed and now illustrates the Whistling Pig and all his friends. She is a specialist in guiding students into the realm of imagination, and also is a well-known meditation teacher. Together they have lived in many lands, working with language and art to create cultural connections. They have four children and two grandchildren, and they love to inspire everyone to be all they can imagine themselves to be!

It's a Xmas gift for my grandson, so neither of us has heard it yet.
author: Jeanne P. QuinnA wonderful CD!
author: Merryl WeberThe Whistling Pig takes you on an imaginative journey that will touch you and everyone who listens. As a teacher, the mother of two and now a grandmother, the Whistling Pig will be high on my list of gifts to give this holiday season to everyone I know who is a child or has one. I love it.
So full of life!
author: Ella JenkinsThis music makes you feel like whistling, singing, clapping your hands, and tapping your feet...children and adults will quite naturally respond to the songs and the rhythm, as they are very catchy, and Dr. Doug has that "join in with me" quality in his voice...great instrumentation also!
Thank you for sharing your gifts so generously!
