Details:
"Dream With Me Tonight" was born of a desire to wrap children and their imaginations in a cozy snuggle of songs ... without driving their parents nuts. Written by Lanny Sherwin, a songwriting Dad who was driven to the brink of nutsdom by existing lullaby CDs, these beautifully produced songs will be enjoyed over and over (and over!) again.

"Dream With Me Tonight" has won 7 children''s music awards, including Parent''s Choice and https://www.tradebit.com. Why so many honors? Possibly because of the Sandman Records motto, "DON''T DRIVE PARENTS CRAZY!"

Here''s what former Doobie Brother and pop icon, Michael McDonald, says: "Lanny Sherwin''s CD, "Dream With Me Tonight", is a wonderful collection of songs that help parents and children transcend a world all too often harsh and unfair. Beautifully rendered by Melodie Crittenden''s vocals, she brings great personality to these terrific songs. Can the world ever have too many wonderful lullabies?"

Ten percent of each CD sale goes to the Spina Bifida Association of America.

"Dream With Me Tonight" was created by a small, but tiny, group of talented people who share one inescapable trait: they are all children at heart. We like to call them...
