Critic reviews

"We listen to your downloads every day, Aura (who is 6) & Neo (who is 4) & me (who is much older!) Love them both. Aura couldn't sleep last night as her back molars are coming through so she snuggled in with me & we put Sweet Meadowlark on & she settled straight away, I agree they are definitely like a great big hug! We listen to them at all kinds of times: when we are being creative, bedtime, bathtime, quiet time etc etc! Aura & Neo first heard Little White Feather at their tinies yoga class which they started earlier this year & our yoga teacher played the download during relaxation & they made a little tipi each. My first listen was when I had a massage treat & the holistic therapist (who is also our yoga teacher) asked if I would like to hear Little White Feather whilst having my massage! I found it very enjoyable & relaxing & knew Aura & Neo would love it too."( Dani Mitchell, UK)

"My son Lewis aged 9 listened to Little White Feather last night and LOVED it!!! He really enjoyed the part where the little white feather lands on the baby's head and also adored the wolf. It was certainly thumbs up from Lewis!" ( Lindsay, UK)

"I've just listened to both downloads and they are absolutely enchanting. Your stories and the expressive way that you read them truly touch the heart - you are blessed with such a blissfully loving voice."( Andrea, UK

Nightly ritual with my five year-old

Such a soothing voice and gentle story to help my daughter fall asleep at night.

Ehh

What did you like best about Little White Feather? What did you like least?

I liked the length and lessons of the 2 tracks. Chapter 1 is merely an introduction. Chapter 2 is bravery and the wolf, also it is just a bedtime story. Chapter 3 is an actual meditation and is very good. It is for recognizing and accepting the smallness of lifes problems with the eagle to guide you.

The value is majorly lacking in comparison to other meditations for children that are of course difficult to find well done. Most are not good for young ages, this one really is.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Jan Yoxall?

Not a native american based one. Please note the critics are all UK. Listened to sample and didn't think it would be an issue but really for native american stories absolutely not working.

Seriously it bugged me hearing the boy fishing to bring home food for tea. I highly doubt there were specifically tea times other than for ritual and healing. That isn't to say they didn't have teas, several varities for different tribes and areas.

Did Little White Feather inspire you to do anything?

Little white feather becomes brave white feather. And brave white feather learns that problems are so small in the grand scheme of things.

Any additional comments?

Personally i wouldn't have wasted as much money on it. Over priced for length. It is just difficult to find meditations for young children like the 3rd chapter and be decently narrated and have a good story or message.
