Her music, as well as being lively and singable, inspires children to care for each other and to celebrate the diversity of our cultural mosaic with songs like “Leave the World a Little Better.” She is best known for favorites like: Four Hugs a Day, I am a Pizza (Je suis une pizza, Soy una Pizza) and Octopus (Slippery Fish).
