Second Time Around

I was given a signed copy (by Sarah Weeks) and cassette tape when my boys were young (they are 15 & 17 now). My boys & I always had it in our car for road trips and knew all of the words to every song. I no longer have the cassette and am going to buy the CD for the book, as I am pregnant now with a little girl and can't wait to share the songs with her!

More than my son...

My mother bought Crocodile Smile for my son when he was one. Heloves it and is always asking for "the blue tape," but I'mthe one who can't stop humming it. It is the most interesting children's music that we own (both music and lyrics). I'm buying it for gifts for others. END

This book is warm and wonderful!

The songs are fun for the kids, however they are poinantly meaningful for the adults. The artists voice is very soothing and I use it every night to put my 3yo son to bed. I love this book and tape... It is one of my house holds favorites!

Excellent concepts taught with heart warming songs.

My wife and I are both teachers who have a 7 year old daughter. I'm not sure who likes the music more, my daughter, or her mother and me. There are songs on the tape that have a very special meaning for adults. Tom Chapin is great, but this Sarah Weeks tape is our favorite.

Wonderfully inspiring and fun songs.

Before my 9 year old daughter Paigé passed away, she spent 6 months in the hospital receiveing chemotherapy treatments for Leukemia and whenever she was sad she would play this tape and read this book to perk up her spirits. I still listen to the music whenever I want to think of Paigé. I highly recommend it!
