Older Gradeschoolers Please

What did you like best about Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales? What did you like least?

The narrator was far and away the best thing about this book. The grimm nature of some of the stories would be best suited for a mature 3rd grader to possibly 6th grade student.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

Clearness, perfect diction, and well reined accent made it easy for children to understand.

Thrilling

The narrating was great! The stories had there happy parts and with some a touch of sadness. I expected it to be great and it's more than great!!

1st Audible book

First audible book I have listened to and finished. LOVED it! Definitely recommend listening to this book and others. I have already started another book.

Wonderful

I love fairy tales, and these are beautifully read by all of the narrators. Hans Christian Andersen's tales are often sad and/or quite dark, and this collection includes a both upbeat and tragic stories.
