My brother and I listened to this record for hours when we were little. When my father was cleaning out the record shelves he handed it over to me, knowing that I would cherish it. I still do to this day. I'd have to say the Doobie Brothers did an excellent job with my favorite children's story. All in all this album is one you'll keep picking up. If you were a child listening to it, you'll still listen to it to this day like I do. If you're a first time parent and want great songs that don't sound cutesy-wootsy this is it. Then you'll find yourself picking it up for friends and the generations to come!
