"the turn-off voice"
I was so excited to share my favorite childhood tale with my children during our drives that I hurriedly bought this book. I should have listened first! I kept my negative first impressions of the narration to myself, but both of my children, 8 & 10 commented, "I don't like the voice" and "can you return it" and "can Natasha (from Storynory) read it"?
I will still give it a try, but in the end they made me feel better for possibly wasting the money buy saying, "Mommy, we would rather you read it!"
