Delightful

I was introduced to Andrew Wincott via his wonderful turn as the devil Raphael in BG3, so I couldn't resist checking out his portrayal of these very different characters in one of my favorite stories. Wonderful again! A fantastic voice actor and a story teller par excellence.

Great for what it is

This is definitely a children’s story but if you need a little light hearted diversion that doesn’t demand a lot of focus, this is a good choice.

Great fight scene

I loved this book because they fight the stoats and weasels in the end. (G. B., age 5)

enjoyable listen

really enjoyed listening to this story. the narrator has such a comfortable manner of speaking that it was worth listening just for the sake of hearing his voice.

Amazing!

This is a wonderful and entertaining story for all ages and the performance was amazing!
