If I would like to make the best compliment to the singer, it would be: he has his own style.
You hear him singing, and you do not even to know the song - it's Daniel Lavoie.

«Montre-moi»

Daniel Lavoie took part in the release «Les Rondes», the audiotape with children songs, which can be found in the compilation «Montre-moi» (FCAF, 1999).
 The compilation for the illiteracy eradication.
 Francophone parents who are not accustomed to reading in French, and who have a child under school age now have at their disposal a simple and practical tool, that allows them to play an educational role. Canadian Federation for French Literacy (FCAF) released the compilation - «Montre-moi», which is aimed at enhancing the parents role in teaching their children French language. It is addressed to all Francophone parents who have a pre-school children. The author-composer-singer Daniel Lavoie, who is the official representative of the Federation (FCAF) since 1996, specially selected and performed 20 songs, traditional for francophone heritage, which can be heard on the audiotape. «The songs - Monsieur Lavoie tells – which had been sung by grandparents. I chose the ones which I found the most suitable. Mostly joyful and funny songs, «- he adds.» His choice criterion was simple: «I would like them to be so accessible for children at 4 years old as well as for those ones at 74. I would like it to be pleasant and funny for everyone.»
 He said that he had the opportunity to participate in the project actively... simply because he asked to do so.
 «And then I saw the dossier, I understood. What is illiteracy and literacy training to be like and I was aware that the problem really was the cause of suffering for many people. «The vice-president of the Federation, Margo Fauchon, emphasized the importance of parents in children raising: «The parents are primarily responsible for their children upbringing. The compilation raised the value of the daily efforts being made by parents to raise their kids». For the Deputy Minister, Norman Moyer, «to know the language means to have a key to the treasure chest».
 Monsieur Moyer even admitted that he ordered the one for his two-year old nephew, who was born by the Anglophone mother and Francophone father and who lives in America. (The article by Francophone Press Association. March 1999)
