Publisher's summary

Bedtime, playtime, and long voyages in the car will never be the same again as families gather to listen to classic tales brought to life by award-winning performers. Audrey Hepburn performs selections from her Grammy Award winning "Enchanted Tales" (adapted by Mary Sheldon); John Ritter tells the story of "Jack and the Beanstalk"; Sharon Stone delivers an off-the-wall rendition of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (the tale by the Brothers Grimm, retold by Richard Hack); and Orson Welles performs the all-time favorite "The Happy Prince" (by Oscar Wilde).

My kids age 2 - 10 really enjoyed listening to these stories. They were sad when it was over and asked if we could listen again. I enjoyed Audrey Hepburn's voice!

Brothers Grim Stories a Bit Scarey For Small Fry

For the tiny ones the Disney version might be a better choice, they need to understand the difference beween fact and fiction stories . Millions have grown up with these stories so they have stood the test of time. There could be no better than the ones here, they are perfect.

Great for ages 1 to 101

Good stories, not quite the same as the Disney cartoons, better. Fantastic voices and music. If you produce more editions I WILL BUY THEM!
