How Dreams Are Made in Shushybye
The world of Shushybye is where dreams are created especially for kids. Little characters called Shushies live in villages like Nap Valley and Snore Shore. Before children go to sleep, they make a "Dream Wish."
The Shushies then get to work! They say "wondrous" many times as they create these dreams. Once a dream is ready, they place it inside a special "Dream Box."
Conductor McCloud then takes these Dream Boxes. He loads them onto the Shushybye Train. The train carries the dreams to children just as they fall asleep.
After making dreams, the Shushies gather for a fun party. They meet in Pillow Park for the nightly Shushybye Dance. They move and groove to the music and take turns saying "wondrous."
The Music of Shushybye
Steve Syatt, who created Shushybye, also wrote the songs for the show. He wanted to make music that both kids and adults would enjoy. The songs introduce young listeners to many different types of music.
You can hear styles like rock 'n roll, blues, jazz, and country music. Many people have praised the music. They call the songs "contemporary lullaby classics."
