NOTES - This rocking children's album contains music written and performed by Shyster James Dague as ScribbleMonster, the main character from his series of children's books. "Just because kids are kids doesn't mean they don't deserve well-delivered rock'n'roll. But that won't be an issue with Scribble Monster- this album is built with integrity, basic musicality and a heck of a rocking punch." - CDBaby
