Family Tree is Tom Chapin's groundbreaking first family recording. Includes the now-classic title track “Family Tree”, as well as ""This Pretty Planet"" played on the Space Shuttle Discovery to wake the astronauts. The album also features guest vocalist Judy Collins. The album is a winner of a Parents' Choice Award and also named a Notable Children's Recording by the American Library Association.“... expands knowledge, stretches the imagination, tickles the funnybone and effortlessly inspires audience participation.” The Washington Post“It’s funny, it’s touching, it’s hip. It’s music children fall in love with the first time they hear it, and it’s music adults can still enjoy even after the kids have played it 700 times. Musically excellent, lyrically delightful ... perfect for classrooms, family listening or as a gift for that special child.” Heartsong Review
