“You Can Tell a Boy by His Smell,” claims award-winning songwriter Thaddeus Rex. Or at least he sings it. On his new children’s CD, “We Wanna Rock: Non-Fiction & Nonsense From the Heartland,” Rex has “A Song for the Girls,” too, as well as genderless tunes such as “I Stepped in Dog Doo.” Hailed “part Monty Python, part Dr. Seuss” (Washington Post), Rex gets kids excited about reading with highly interactive acoustic rock concerts, utilizing songs inspired by "Alice in Wonderland," "Captain Underpants," non-fiction experiences and more. Launch date: 2006.
