"Simply Delicious!!"
I could listen to this over and over. Julie Andrews' Treasury for all Seasons is just that...a treasure! No matter what the occasion, Julie and Emma have compiled a delicious collection of diverse selections that are sure to touch the heart.
This collection includes many old favorites as well as some I've never heard, and a few wonderful poems by Julie and Emma as well.
Julie and Emma's expressive readings bring each poem and song lyric to jubilant life! What could be better than having that famous voice read to you?!
Delicious Prose
I'm saving this, as well as the Julie Andrews' Collection of Poems, Songs and Lullabies, to read to my future grandchildren, and of course, enjoy them myself until then!
