Listening to these little stories, and the lovely voice of the reader. Little children would love to listen to her voice, and these precious little tales.

Love, love, love Ms. Caldwell's voice! Son first listened to these stories as a toddler. He still wants them now as a 'mature' 3rd grader. Thank goodness for the app!
Interesting.

Although this recordings are aimed mainly to children, it is pretty interesting to someone like me...a latin american who didnt know what seems to be common knowledge in other countries. But I would recommend this book for children older than 12. Younger children might find it boring.
Great stories, the greatest reader
