"This is a wonderful resource. So many avenues to explore. Such tremendous content. My class (Year 4) just can't get enough of it. It's really got them thinking too. Lots of great discussions about extinction and they are fascinated about all the inventions inspired by animals and plants. Wonderful songs too - can't stop singing them! Fantastic!"

"Thank you for the delivery of the CD set, arrived 7.45 this morning. Again congratulations on the quality of your work. Young children have so much dumbing down,or just plain ignorant, media to influence them today. Your production shines out like a gem." Eric, Wales


"Want a multi-media resource to meet the challenges of the Primary Framework for Literacy? Well, give Rockford’s Rock Opera a try. A chance click of the computer mouse, after a long and fruitless search of the internet looking for inspiration, led me to this superb resource. It is a cornucopia of different media: video, spoken word, music, drama, pictures and written texts. This wonderful resource gave a very wide range of opportunities for speaking and listening, drama, reading and writing. My class of year 4, middle and lower ability children, predominately boys, loved it!! Rockford took over our whole classroom and was used as the inspiration for work in almost every other subject – a truly cross-curricular theme. We celebrated our work in an assembly shown to the rest of the school, parents and friends. The children excelled themselves. Their learning and self confidence has exceeded expectations. Please take a look and find out the creatures' secrets. You and your pupils will not regret it." Jane, Literacy manager, Primary School (UK)


"Wonderful story. Thank you. I'd recommend it to everyone - young and old." Steve
