I LOVE THIS BOOK BY LIANA

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!! This is the best book ever! I actually have the real book. But... I never get a chance to read it. But with this app all the books that I have is on Audible and I can listen to them after school. It is so fun to use Audible especially when kids are learning to read. thank you

Great story?

I think the story was good but the narrator was slightly annoying. l hope to get another one.
