Seeger on CD submitted by camelsamba on August 2, 2011, 10:42pm Be sure to listen to the CD - it's great to listen to Pete Seeger tell the story and sing the song, although it might make you feel inadequate about your own rendition.

CD is missing submitted by tteslov1 on April 18, 2016, 1:33pm My daughters love the story. Unfortunately, the CD has been missing since 2012.
