James and the Giant Peach, Episode 7

Yo-Yo Ma, arguably the greatest cellist of our time, plays the old green grasshopper in this episode.  He serenades us just as the grasshopper does to James and the other creatures. This episode is not only entertaining, but simply a beautiful collection of entertainers creating art.

Grasshopper says to James, "There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that you haven't started wondering about yet."  What things in this world of ours do you wonder about?

Please take the time to enjoy more entertaining videos of the artist featured in this episode.

Yo-Yo Ma has been performing since the age of four and a half.  Here is a great appearance he made on Sesame Street many years ago.

Cynthia Erivo plays Lady Bird in this episode.  She is a talented actress, singer, and comedian.  Click on the picture to see the official lyrics for the movie she was in about Harriet Tubman.

Utkarsh Ambudkar plays a character named Skatch in the new Disney live-action movie Mulan set to come out this summer.  Take a look at the movie trailer.

So many good talking points in this video for parents with their children.  Please take the time to watch Billy Elliot join 2 school choirs to sing in honour of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

This is a song that Jamie Cullen wrote for 2 'Beautiful Kids'.
