Press Reviews Billboard- This interactive children's disc and storyboard is a cut above the usual kid's fare. "The Lemming Shepherds" tells the intelligent story of Arthur and Jewel, Whose goal is saving their fellow lemmings from ecological doom. Nineteen original songs accompany this musical journey, as well as a 40-page colorful storybook. The book and music are automatically synchronized when users play the disc in their computer. "The Lemming Shepherds" is a great read-along and sing-along for parents and kids with or without computers. LA Times- Colorfully illustrated by Dave Shelton, a former cartoon editor at National Lampoon magazine, the digital storybook can be played in Macintosh and IBM-compatible computers. The CD-ROM allows readers to listen to the soundtrack, which features 19 songs including new age, jazz and alternative rock music, while they read the story and look at the illustrations. Currently available only through Exzel Music, the digital soundtrack is slated for mass release in the fall through a national mail-order catalog. Both aerospace engineers and accomplished musicians, Costello and Lund invested four years and more than $100,000 in the writing and production of their book and soundtrack. In many ways, the pairs’ struggles to complete “The Lemming Shepherds” were similar to the tribulations faced by Arthur and Jewel, Lund said.
