The Pinwheel Songbook

A marvelous, magical musical children's hour!

Welcome to Aurelia's boarding house, and a song-filled, fun-filled hour with Jake, Kim, Smitty & Sal, Ebenezer the weed-keeper, Luigi and his vegetables, Molly the Mols, Herbert& Lulu the hobo bugs, the puppet twins Plus & Minus - all your favorite humans and puppets from the award-winning pre-school children's program Pinwheel.

In the tradition of Burr Tillstom's classic Kukla, Fran and Ollie program and Jim Henson's world-famous Muppets, Pinwheel presents its delighted viewers with a wonderful world of musical entertainment. Over five million cable TV subsricbers have had access to Pinwheel programs via Nickelodeon, Warner Amex Satellit Entertainment Companys critally acclaimed Young People's Channel now celebratng its second anniversary.

A key factor in Pinwheel's success has been the outstanding quality of its original musical direction of George James. James also composed a majority of music and lyrics on the show. Some songs tell stories, others teach you simple lessons - but all are hard to get out of your head after you've heard them once or twice. "Aurelia's Lullaby," "Everything Comes In Its Own Sweet Time," the gentle ballad "Big Hop to the Moon" and the catchy "Pinwheel Theme" are among highlights of this amusing, entertaining Pinwheel anthology presentation.

Your kids will enjoy every minute they spind in Pinwheel's company. And if you drop in yourself from time to time, you may find that you feel like humming along!
