Reviews

Scarecrow of Oz


(5 stars)

Very well done. I love the use of character voices!

Outstanding!


(5 stars)

This story came with my daughter and me on a camping trip. We sat around the fire and listened on tiny iPod speakers. Character voices were wonderful. Every bit as good as the Lemony Snickets audiobook with Tim Curry and other voices that cost $13.95. I recommend to anyone.

awesome voices take u in real world

Good luck to all of you I Love it (500%)


(2.5 stars)

Prefer simple narration as opposed to different readers doing voices for each character. I like to use my imagination for the voice of each character rather than have it “ready made”. I engage with the story better without the distraction of character voices.
