The Adventures of Jo Jo

By: James Lawless

Narrated by: Ronald Fox

Jo Jo is an endearing but sometimes mischievous little girl of eight years. She has a great imagination. She can talk to animals, and she loves the woods where many of her adventures take place. Find out how the deer, Rudolf, got his red nose, or what a crab turns into at the seaside, or what happens to Jo Jo when she gets lost in the city or when she is whisked off to a magic kingdom. Sometimes, Jo Jo can be scary, too, as in the spooky tale of "The Moving Door Handle". Here are stories that will appeal not only to children of all ages but to imaginative adults as well who are young at heart.

Lovely Adventure!

Would you consider the audio edition of The Adventures of Jo Jo to be better than the print version?

I didn't read the print version.

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoyed the narrator's interpretation of each character that JoJo encountered in this book.

Which character – as performed by Ronald Fox – was your favorite?

My favorite was the reindeer, Rudolf. The voice that Ronald Fox created helped bring this famous character to life. It made me smile.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I would have to say the JoJo and the Squirrel story was moving to me. It was a story of being able to make a difference in a positive way in light of a tragic event. RIP Oliver. :-)

Any additional comments?

I thoroughly enjoyed Ronald Fox's performance. He was very creative and engaging with each character. He should do more children's book narrations.

Great stories

My 7 year old and I loved listening to JoJo's adventures. The narrator was fabulous.
