depending upon the song, style, and subject matter. Mr. Susser
believes the performance as well as the song must be

Growing
Up With A Song |
|
The songs on
these albums were written and produced so that young
children may learn important lessons and concepts early in
life, while having fun. I would like to express my
appreciation to the wonderful vocalists, arrangers,
musicians, and engineers who contribute their talents that
help me in the making of my albums. I am also very grateful
to the many teachers and parents, who throughout the years,
have allowed me to express ideas and feelings to their
children through the songs I have created. These songs for
young children are a great part of my life. I look forward
to my future endeavors, to take part in developing the self
in each child through my songs, and to enjoy the sight and
sound of children......growing up with a song.
