This was my favorite story growing up. Just listened to audible's reading. Never realized the little engine that could was a girl!

My grandkids love this book. They love to listen to it every chance they get.

Classic. Narration could be better.

This is a classic story and overall my kid loves it. As an adult listener- the narration for the prose is a bit off- wish it were in a more natural voice.

The narrator ruins this classic

Something was off putting about the narration. I read the other reviews who mentioned the speed was too fast, so I slowed it down and it still isn't right. My son and I love the book, but not this audio recording.

Strange voice

Too animated. This actually scared my child. Don’t buy this one for a bedtime story!

Read much too fast

We love this book, but it was read much too fast for small children (or even us parents!) to listen to.

Something is amiss here

I was initially thinking that this recording was transferred badly, and that the voice narration was sped up. Because not only is the reading way too fast, the main narrator's voice sounds pretty warped. But while that seems true of the narrator, the other voices seem fine, so, I dunno. Whatever the reason for the issue, I find the narrative speed bothersome, and the narrator's voice distractingly weird. My four and half year old son agrees the voice is odd, but still enjoys the story.
