Three cheers for Piglet! Pooh's pink friend gets top billing in Piglet's Big Movie, and Carly Simon brings the soundtrack to life. The beloved singer-songwriter takes her signature dusky, melodious voice to the world of Disney, bringing Piglet's complex personality to musical life. The film follows Pooh's gang in the Hundred Acre Wood as they prepare for a honey harvest. But Piglet grows frustrated after being told he's too small to help. After their little pal disappears, the gang recalls how Piglet was a hero in the past. The soundtrack starts with the memorable first lines of the Winnie-the-Pooh theme -- from the very first "la la la," listeners know they are in for sweet treat. Simon's genuine emotion fills the sentimental "If I Wasn't So Small (The Piglet Song)," and her unmistakable voice shines in "With a Few Good Friends." The poignant "The More I Look Inside" twinkles with piano and touching lyrics about the search for Piglet. And don't miss the contemplative "Comforting to Know," featuring the gorgeous vocals of Grammy-winning opera singer Renée Fleming. Simon's seven original songs are all fine examples of the buoyant folk-pop for which she's earned her reputation, and the message is just as uplifting: Young listeners learn that it doesn't take somebody big to do great things. The album is broken into three chapters: The Songs, The Score, and Bonus Material, which features Simon's demo tracks. The disc's liner notes include lyrics to aid in sing-alongs with the delightful Simon and her friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. Amy Barkat, Barnes & Noble
