    Alice begins her fantastic journey by following an unprecedented White Rabbit with a pocket watch. While in the topsy turvy world of Wonderland, Alice takes advice from a caterpillar and attends a mad tea party. She meets the Mock Turtle and the Gryphon, and participates in a ludicrous courtroom scene. Each character has its own charming voice, as B. J. Harrison delivers one of his most whimsical performances.

    Story

    I recently took a trip that required many hours of flying, and I'm a nervous flyer. Whenever we hit some "rough air" I put my headphones on and listened to this classic story. The narration was soothing and made me forget how bumpy the flight was.
    The only thing I would change is the volume control. Sometimes the noise around me was almost louder than the audible volume control could match.
    I also used this audible to drown out my friend's extremely loud snoring, as we shared a cabin on a cruise ship for 6 days! Because the background noise wasn't as loud as in the plane it worked great!

    Poor Dick and Sally. It's cold and wet and they're stuck in the house with nothing to do...until a giant cat in a hat shows up, transforming the dull day into a madcap adventure and almost wrecking the place in the process!

    Would you consider the audio edition of The Cat in the Hat to be better than the print version?

    no.


    What other book might you compare The Cat in the Hat to and why?

    none.


    What does Kelsey Grammer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    Hie voice is very expressive of the mood and excitement of the story.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    The first line always gets me!


    Any additional comments?

    Has it ever been considered to have pictures that follow the story? I think with children's books it would keep a little one's attention longer.
