Beloved children's classic

I loved this story when I was a kid listening to this on my record player. The story was so real to me when told to the orchestra playing accompaniment. I loved it so much that I just had to have it my library to share with my grandson. It is so great to be able to share the same experience with him. Definitely a must have for your listening library if you have little ones. "Audible 20 Review Sweepstakes Entry"

A classic for all ages!!

The story, the instruments representing each character...a must listen for every child who appreciates being lost in a story.

Symphony and Audiobook!

Jim Dale narrates a classic children's book that pairs symphony with narrative. It's a great learning piece to teach children how music can speak!
