Editorial reviews

As an introduction to classic poetry, this audiobook is simply delightful. It starts off with memorable children's rhymes, including works by Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, and Louisa May Alcott. As the listener moves through the collection, the poetry grows in sophistication with poems by John Keats, Christina Rossetti, and William Wordsworth. Short clips of classical music provide pleasant transitions between segments. The cast members take turns narrating the various poems, and all of them deliver the works with close attention to cadence and elocution. They read with enthusiasm, often bringing in vocal characterizations when appropriate. An excellent choice for children, this production provides a tasteful selection of poetry classics.
