Story read by author!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

There is nothing better than a book read by its author - Arnold Lobel puts voices and mannerisms to his lovely characters, Frog & Toad, that fit so perfectly with these beloved books. My kids of various ages ask for this audiobook all the time!

my boy's favorite book along the road

What did you like best about this story?

My 7 year old boy just loves Frog & Toad. So I thought it would be good for him to listen to the stories on the road. And he loved it! Hearing from the author of his own book is really fun point too. :)

This took me back to my own childhood

I just loved listening to these stories when I was a child and now to be able to listen to them with my son is a great experience. The children I care for also love listening to these stories and following along in my old picture books..... Love these stories!

The sound effects are too loud

I bought this book because I enjoyed these stories as a child and looked forward to revisiting them and passing them on to a new generation, however, I couldn't finish listening. The sound effects were really loud and they over powered the narration. I had to have the volume up high enough to listen to the story but all of the music and other effects hurt my ears and made me cringe.

Wonderful for young kids

I have a 5 and a 3 year old and they both love listening to this book. The stories are 5-10 minutes each, just perfect for the shorter attention spans of young kids. The author wonderfully conveys the different characters personalities.

Four Frog and Toad Book in One Collection!

This is where you can find all twenty stories about two best friends named Frog and Toad. I used to read those stories when I was a kid. Whether you have read them before or not, I’m sure you’ll love listening to these stories. One of my favorites was the one where Frog and Toad try not to eat so many cookies.

This is a book about buddies I highly recommend.

Our #1 best audio book ever!

The peaceful voice of the author, the background music and the story make this audiobook the best one for sleep time, quite time or anytime. We love it. We have the book and now the kids can heard it wild listen to it.

Best ever reading for young readers

The score is Peter and the Wolf good. Arnold loebel did such a great job breathing life into his stories with the reading.

Great for car rides

If you could sum up Frog and Toad Audio Collection in three words, what would they be?

Wonderful stories

What was one of the most memorable moments of Frog and Toad Audio Collection?

When the kids get in the car and ask to listen to Frog and Toad

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

My children are 3 and 6 years old and they love listening to this over and over again. It has gotten us through many long car rides.

Only for the VERY young

This is one of those children's books that may have been better left in print. The story's are cute and very simple, but it's easy to tell the author relied on illustrations, not plot, to keep the kids interested.

It is nice that the stories are broken down into 10 minute adventures, but I wouldn't buy this book if you are looking for a "Family Listen". I'm sure older kids (and parents) listening will revolt quickly. Listen to the audio sample first to see if this is simple enough or too simple for your listeners.

Excellent stories

Kids and I love the humorous classic stories from A. Lobel. The stories promote friendships between the two characters.

The narrative is nice but does not live up the potential of the content as the tone is a bit flat and lack of liveness.
