Hilarious

Would you consider the audio edition of The Runaway Windmill to be better than the print version?

In general terms, yes, we prefer John Erickson's narration to our own reading, but in this case there is no print version.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Runaway Windmill?

"Hairy Legs?!?!" or "Badger buzz saw"

Which character – as performed by John R. Erickson – was your favorite?

Hank, of course

Any additional comments?

My kids love these books. Although they enjoy reading aloud the Hank books, and having the books read aloud by parents, we cannot come close to the masterful narration by the author.
