Jim Gill Likes His Soup

It's been awhile -- OK, too long -- since Jim Gill has released one of his playful albums for kids, but at least he's got a new book out.

Titled A Soup Opera, written by Gill and illustrated by David Moose, it tells the story of one man's quest to eat a simple bowl of soup. Since this is a book, you will not be surprised to find out there are complications.

Also, because this is a Jim Gill book, you will not be surprised to find out there's a CD that accompanies the book which recites the story in song. (Opera, natch.)
