PRAISE FOR MY BODYWORKS
“This gem gets the kids hooked with good songwriting and music production and slips in the educational values. . .and the songs are great. The Schoenbergs help children understand the body. Accurate and fun facts fill My Bodyworks.”
Fred Kotch, Chicago Parent Magazine
“A splendid book for all the senses. The illustrations are lively and delightful.”
– Eric Carle
“My Bodyworks makes learning about the human body fun. . .While all of the songs are a cinch to sing along with, the biggest crowd-pleaser will most likely be the matter-of-fact “Everyone Passes Gas,” an airy tutorial that is more tuneful than toot-ful.”
Moira McCormick, FamilyFun Magazine
“What a delicious combination of talents: lyrics, music, and facts all together. This one is earmarked for my twin granddaughters who are just the right age for it.”
–Jane Yolen, author
“My Bodyworks is one of the most clever and entertaining concept albums ever written for children. It is highly recommended for the whole family.”

“My Bodyworks is a terrific book-CD combination that succeeds in being entertaining first and informative second…It’s an outstanding way to introduce young kids to basic biological concepts.”
Kathy O’Connell, MetroKids Magazine
“For the first time, a book of songs has earned a place on the NSTA/CBC award list. This simple introduction in song to the parts of the body is outstanding in both its scientific accuracy and its usefulness in the elementary classroom. The catchy lyrics will become student favorites as they learn. Teachers will appreciate the way these songs support lessons on health and anatomy. A great way to sing along with science.”
