"Wonderful!"
Well-written stories and outstanding narration make the Henry Huggins and Ramona series high-quality listening entertainment. Neil Patrick Harris does an amazing job with the Henry Huggins stories and Stockard Channing shines in the Ramona series. My 5 year old and I have both enjoyed them immensely. You won't be disappointed.

"Classic given new life with wonderful narration"
Would you listen to Henry Huggins again? Why?Absolutely. Not only is the story a classic, but the narrator is fantastic.
What did you like best about this story?Strong characters and timeless adventures.
Which character – as performed by Neil Patrick Harris – was your favorite?Henry.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?I laughed out a loud a few times, along with my children.
Any additional comments?This was one of the books we listened to as a family on our first road trip to New Orleans from Chicago. It was definitely one of the top 3 favorites of the kids and enjoyable to us as well. Nice to share a story that I loved as a child, brought to life by the wonderful and witty narration of Neil Patrick Harris.

"Delightful visit on Klickitat Street"
Neil Patrick Harris does a lovely job with his characterizations, and the stories, of course, are from another time and age, when troubles could really be quite sweet (anyone for dozens of Mason jars full of fish?). I remember these stories from my childhood, and now I listen to them with my kids, who laugh and giggle and can't wait for the next chapter. Hats off to Beverly Cleary and Henry Huggins.

"Forget Hawthone and Melville, Cleary is timeless"
The Henry Huggins series by Beverly Cleary was my introduction to "big boy" reading as a child and if not for Cleary I might never have gone to read the other classics. Listening to them again brought back many wonderful memories. I can't wait to introduce my son to Henry and Ribsy (but he'll get the books).
