What is it with kids and dinosaurs? This fascinating fascination with all things homunculus and extinct seems as old as time itself. On The Great Dinosaur Mystery: A Musical Fossil Fantasy, a cast of characters (and dinosaurs, of course) move through a dinosaur discovery story with a collection of songs set in both the modern age and the Mesozoic era. Detective Joe Kafootsie and Dr. Vander Plaster Caster enlist the help of kids and a set of parents to find out what happened to the dinosaurs. The songs are upbeat, the styles varying from highly theatrical tangos to swing, country, and pop, and the plot is as much fun as your imagination will allow. Played like a radio drama of old, The Great Dinosaur Mystery does a wonderful job of teaching not only about dinosaurs, but also about good listening skills. Complete with lyrics and some legit facts about our lost megacreatures of long ago, Mystery answers basic questions about certain types of dinosaurs and why they became extinct. But it never even ventures a guess about why we're still so taken with their plight. Is it because, as the cast sings near the end of the record, "dinosaurs are forever?" --Martin Keller
