Clive this is another great book in your series of children's stories. My kids loved this story just as much and the other stories.

Great Classic Bedtime story

This is very close to the original classic story of Little Red Riding Hood. Being only 12 minutes long it a perfect bedtime story for young kids. The narration was great too.

Such a great story.

You think this story isn’t true, either because you don’t know that you are in the stomach of the big bad wolf, or because you don’t believe that people can survive being eaten by the big bad wolf. This is a cautionary tale full of hope. But you have to think about it.

Classic Short Story

This was a great retelling of the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood, complete with the moral at the end that is still relevant for little ones today. Stranger Danger! It's the perfect length for a bedtime story.

The narrator has the perfect voice for the story, soothing and easy to listen to. I requested a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Classic

This is a pretty standard translation of the classic. I enjoyed the voices and narration and my (evidently morbid) daughters enjoyed listening to the wolf's fate.

A childhood favorite.

I loved sharing this story with my granddaughter. It's wonderful that Clive Johnson is bringing my childhood favorites back to life by retelling them. Everything from the story to the narration is perfect. I recommend this and Clive's other Fairy Story Shorts.

Kids loved it!!

Everyone should know the story so my review is about the narrator.

He did a great job in engaging the listener to be attentive to the retelling of a great story. My kids managed to sit there the whole time to listen and was thoroughly impressed with he story. Great job Clive.

A classic tale, well told

The reading of this fairy tale is wonderful. I really appreciate the warm, avuncular quality of Johnson’s soft English accent. It makes me feel like I’m sitting by the fire on a winter night, listening to stories. It never overpowers the story or calls attention to itself.

This is a pretty standard version of the tale. Yes, the wolf gets killed and chopped up - so parents just be aware that this isn’t the sanitized Disney characterization.

Full disclosure, I received a copy of this audiobook gratis for the purposes of this review.

A Great Classic Retold

This is a great classic retold which still holds the morals for today's young ones. I enjoyed listening to this story and listening to my children interrupt the story to tell what was done wrong...without prompting! Clive Johnson did a wonderful job with the story and the narration. An entertaining listen for those of all ages.
