5.0 out of 5 stars I like to sing the songs, too, January 19, 2003
By A Customer
The second Tom Chapin in my collection (1st=Around the World) I got this at the library and fell in love with the Wheel of the Water song, plus Picnic of the World. Almost all the songs are good! Tom Chapin is great b/c his songs aren't annoying like many kid songs, and they have layers of nuance that will make my 2-year-old enjoy them for many years to come. Definitely worth having.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mother Earth Nurtures Kids and Families, February 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mother Earth (Audio CD)
I had to buy a CD from Amazon.com to replace the tape we've had for three years. It is literally worn out from being played so much. Words can't describe how wonderful it is to hear my boys (three and four years old) sing "good garbage is supposed to decompose" and inquire to Mother Earth when they are wishing for the most recently seen wildlife species to return to our yard! Tom Chapin's gift to our family is priceless.

5.0 out of 5 stars terrific, November 10, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Mother Earth (Audio CD)
This whole CD is terrific, but the song, "Thanksgiving Day" should be a national classic. This CD has songs with great messages, melodies, and is fun too.
