thumbs up!

Two adults and 6-year-old loved this on car trip from Lake Geneva WI to Chicago on a grey day. We were amazed that the time flew by as fast as it did, and all three of us were convinced it was because we had such a good time laughing along with the stories.

Plain pasta for the brain

The kids love this MP3 probably because it reminds them of the tv series. As for me, the parent, it's a little dull. The narration is somewhat monotone, the story (there are two) lacks humor and sometimes I question the moral character of these stories -- they often contain sibling friction and teasing. All in all, its an inoffensive albiet tedious choice that the kids will love. A bit like a dinner of noodles and peas.

Say Hello To Arthur He's Really Glad To Meet You

These are really great. We had them in the car and listened to them about 1,000 times without going insane.

Different than the PBS cartoon - but better.
