Hi-ho, Silver–away!

Bit of inside baseball here–this was my old man's favorite book as a kid, and he was fortunate enough to connect with the author and land the narration gig for it. His personal connection with the characters is evident through his delivery, and, as my sister and I learned to appreciate from him reading to us when we were younger, "he does all the voices!" An excellent audiobook–and, this being one of his earlier works, he's only improved since then.
