A beautiful Story

(5 Sterne)

A beautiful story, by LM Alcott. Marina read the tale with such a variety of voices for the many characters and a sublime singing voice. I didn't want the story to end.

I love this reading of eight cousins so much. the narrator puts such feeling into the characters and has a singing voice to do Phoebe justice.
