"""Barry Louis Polisar is an American treasure. He has altered forever the way children and adults communicate through music. He's irresistible to kids who have long needed a determined and articulate spokesperson to remind the world of childhood's realities."" --All Ears Guide to Recorded Music for Children ""Barry Louis Polisar is clearly not most contemporary children's performers.
