where's Harry?
Both of my kids love Harry Connick Jr.'s 'Songs I Heard'. He covered some great classics... none of which are on here.
Missing the work of Tom Chapin
Tom Chapin's children's music should be represented in this collection. Chapin's work spans a broad range of musical styles, and his lyrics tell creative stories that are a pleasure for both children and parents. You could load the family into the minivan and drive coast to coast playing nothing but Chapin's albums on infinite repeat and all arrive happier and more sane than when you set out.
