Reviews

cute, happ, short book


(5 stars)

I am not a big fan of these theatrical type recordings where each reader takes a character. Makes the listening too disjointed. This one is no exception. However I still managed to enjoy this book. probably because the narrator is one of my favorite readers. Thanks Elizabeth!
