Wonder Wonder is the third album by Edith Frost, released in 2001 through Drag City.
Critical reception
No Depression wrote that "Frost’s unpolished but beautifully tuneful voice elegantly shifts through the stylistic changes, which in turn are effortlessly navigated by Chicago-area players including Rick Rizzo and Archer Prewitt." Exclaim! wrote: "Chicagoan Edith Frost's third album continues the path of heart-wrenching, introspective and beautiful songwriting, backed with simple, spare arrangements and her haunting, hint-of-twang voice." The Washington Post thought that "Frost's old-timey songs can sound like genre exercises, but the best of these tunes – whether the lively 'Cars and Parties' or the unhurried 'You're Decided' – are specific and personal."
