Reseñas de la Crítica

"Richard and Judy Young are remarkable narrators." (Booklist)

Mostly just short spooky bed time stories

Not much too talk about here although the final story was the most terrifying. Not a bad listen it is completely made up of short stories.

Old-fashioned Children’s Stories

They’re children’s stories, and not very modern ones, but I like them. I like the lilting storytelling, and the morals hidden in some of the stories. They’re not terribly scary, but they do offer a glimpse at times past, and the possibility of an afterlife. I do get the sense that this was created for a very young crowd, and with the school board in mind. They should have allowed the scare factor to climb a little higher.

For lore junkies

These are told in a very campfire and oral tradition style. They're a fun listen.

Poor narration

Sounded like my third grade teacher at story time. I just couldn’t take the narration, nor any of the stories seriously. Not worth my time. I read 3 - 4 books a week on Audible. This was an especially poor one. I hope this is helpful.
