I love the young ones

I love listening to these stories about the young ones, Everytime they here a story, Off they go. Love it. can't wait for the next one.

love

I love S. E. Smith. Johnathan Strait is a really great reader. But I feel that David Brenin should have continued the readings of these stories. H8s voice is more suitable for the dragonlings and Johnathan should be doing the narration of the adults. Either way S. E. Smith's books have great readers

Love love love the Dragonlings

This is my first book with the new narrator. I’m so used to David Brennen that it was jarring to hear a different voice. I will say that it’s harder to distinguish the characters from each other. All the males sound the same. He did better differentiating the kids voices but even that was a little weird to me. But overall I loved the story and the introduction of new people to the universe.

Redeemed!

I love it when the dragonlings go on adventures! It always adorable how they help some couple find love and redemption. And the older ones are growing up!

Great reminder

this story ( just like all the other dragonlings stories ) reminded us not to judge others by there color or parents actions. it's what they do and what's in their heart that count. very fun well written story.

Love the story not do much the narrator.

The narrator mispronounced the names of many of the characters. After listening to most of the stories being narrated by David this was such a difficult listen. David did so much better at voicing each character and actually giving each their own personality. This is the second of S E Smith’s audio and that I’ve listened to with this narrator and both were painful to listen to. Please redo with David.

The narration ruined it for me. I couldnt finish i

Not sure why the change from David as narrator, but he excelled at bringing the drsgonnlings to life with their unique characters. I am sure Jonathon is a good narrator but the lisping way he spoke for the dragonlings ruined it for me. I coukdnt ginish the book. There was more focus on the way they spoke than on their character as they spoke. I had a hard tome following who was who in such a large group of children. Also, not all children speak as if the were born with Downs, who are precious souls and not to be mimicked, even without intending harm.

Similar loss of character inflection with the adults.

S E. I have ALL of your books and love them. This is the second one that the narration ruined it for me. The other was Havens song.

Can you bring David back?
