A Lovely Collection

This is a lovely collection of children's stories from various authors. The stories are all classics and speak for themselves, not much else to say about them. The narration was okay. Carol Mintz read at a nice pace with a clear voice. However, I would have liked a bit more variety with the characters' voices. Fortunately, children aren't always as picky as adults. My children enjoyed hearing the different stories.

Some scarier elements

Beware of Chapter 8!
“Bluebeard” is a tale I wasn’t familiar with. The story was frightening and too graphic for younger listeners. My imaginative 7 year old was terrified. The other stories were fine, but downloading the free versions of some of these classics would have been a better choice than spending the credit.

Plain

No music. Just a narrator lady. But she is not bad. She doesn’t do character voices. Just wanted to say this in case someone wants to know.

Too dark and graphic for kids

Some of these stories claim to be Disney stories, but are more horror and demons added to the stories. A lot of death added as well, not familiar with all of the “kid” stories.

Excellent for road trips with kids!

This collection includes classic stories of varying lengths. They are entertaining for adults, not too over-the-top cute but also not too violent or graphic for kids. For example, in the story of Cinderella, the stepsister is told to cut off her toe to try to fit the glass slipper. It’s not described by any means.

This would be great for family road trips or at bedtime. My family is happy to have this added to our collection.

I received this audiobook free in return for an honest review.

Great for bedtime

First I’ll just go ahead and say that I received this title for free in exchange for unbiased review. That being said I asked for this specific title for my 7 year old daughter to try. And we listened to two stories each night before bed together and she very much enjoyed them and fell fast asleep afterwards. When I asked what she thought of them the next morning she said she loved them and is asking for more. It’s also great for in the car on long drives. If you have small children I would definitely recommend they would be well worth the credit.
