Kids music that rocks
"This is a beautiful album to be coming out in these times of increasing loss of uniqueness and personal conviction. It's very cool that a kids' artist will make a call-to-arms to the under-10 crowd, while entertaining them all the while ... have fun, but get involved. Groovy!"


Chicago Tribune
"Grade: B+. By picking up a guitar and playing
children's music, Little Miss Ann redefines
"supermom.""

Kids music that rocks
"Torralba and her husband have recorded an album of songs that are really ... well, for lack of a better term, groovy, but I mean that in the best way possible. The production is very warm and intimate, and there are lots of killer harmonies. Think Steeleye Span or Fairport Convention with less elaborate instrumentation and simpler vocal arrangements."

The Lovely Mrs. Davis
The Lovely Mrs. Davis says that Music for Tots by
Little Miss Ann (Ann Torralba) is a fabulous album by
a teacher from Chicago's Old Town School of Folk
Music. With a mix of traditional songs and Torralba
originals, the album has a folk-rock feel with rich
vocals and a beautiful mix of simple instrumentation
(guitar, pan flute, tin whistle, percussion, bass).
Torralba's cover of "You Are My Sunshine" is one of
the album's high points, but all 10 tracks are
enjoyable.

School Library Journal May 2009 issue on Clap for Love. "She covers territory for preschoolers this time around, showcasing her wide vocal range from rich, edgy alto to light, airy soprano. The backup band helps fill out the sound, contributing to a very enjoyable listening experience.
