–Mark Greenberg Ph.D., Director, Prevention Research Center, Penn State University "Music is an important teaching tool for young children. David’s music helps children internalize social/emotional concepts that are part of classroom curriculum. There is so much learning that takes place through singing and listening to these wonderful songs! Children love his music and sing the songs throughout the day. The messages in David’s songs are simple and make the social/emotional concepts real for the child." - Glenna Hess, Jefferson County Schools, Louisville, KY
