Reviews

Charming book


(4 stars)

I must disagree with the previous review. The mispronunciations s/he refers to were written that way by the author of the book,Kate Douglas Wiggin to reflect the way some simple country people might talk. The story itself is an easy, fun listen and the reader is super.

Enjoyable!


(4 stars)

I like the reader's style, and can only imagine that the negative reviewer may not be accustomed to her accent.

Innocent, cute


(3 stars)

Not the best book from the author, but still nice little thing to listen

would have liked to listen to book but naration incomprehensible


(2 stars)

Those who love fowls will enjoy it


(4 stars)

Too bad


(2 stars)

The reader's slurred pronunciations and mispronunciations make much of this charming little book unintelligible.
