Extremely quick read

Any additional comments?

Cute extremely short story about a cat that is trying to catch a mouse. The audio book is under 2 minutes, so it's perfect if your kids need a really quick bedtime story.

Pictures as you go!

This is an excellent audible audio book! Not only is this a part of the Beatrix Potter collection but if you are listening to this book through your audible app there are pictures to follow along with the story. Although so short, the story itself doesn't really have a morale. Miss Moppet is a cat who is being picked on/bullied by a mouse. Once trapping the mouse and wanting to "teach" the mouse a lesson she starts to throw the mouse around to find out in the end that the mouse had already gotten away and continues to tease Miss Moppet.

I understand that the story is a classic, part of a collection and very short, I feel like some of the stories in the collection shouldn't or can't stand alone. I gave this audio book 4 stars because Audible does an amazing job with these children stories with giving pictures to follow along with the stories. Gale Van Cott does an excellent job with voicing the tale.

Over all I think this would be an excellent addition to your audible or audio book collection.

YES -- Pictures in the Audible App!

We recently discovered these kids audible books that have the illustrations in a slideshow as they listen to the stories on their fire tablets in the app. My boys (5-11) are all LOVING discovering their favorite stories over again with Audible! These are a STEAL!

Zero dollars, two minutes

If you are wondering how synchronized images work, this would be the best way to find out. It costs nothing and takes very little time. I thought the story was cute, the pictures okay and I will get more with images and try some more Potter.

Story is predictable and is for very young children.

Short snippet

This price is right on this little snippet of a story. The art work and pictures are classics. Be sure to listen on a device that has a video screen.

This story reminds me of the books and clothed animal stories my grandmother always had in her home.

Short and sweet.
