Little Golden Treasury

Each of these comfortable adventures has jaunty music and enough realistic sound effects to enhance the characters' explorations into the wider world. "The Pokey Little Puppy," narrated in the soprano voice of Susan Gregory, keeps the young listener engaged with the right blend of repetition and back-yard adventure. Gregory's delivery of "The Saggy Baggy Elephant" is equally delightful. Skip Hinnant's many voices for all the characters met by "Scruffy the Tugboat" and "The Tawny Scrawny Lion" keep the listener on track through these lighthearted stories. This set of four favorite nursery stories is a lot of fun to listen to. R.H.H. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
