Kenneth Grahame
Every child deserves to enjoy this time-tested story at some point, and with such an expertly-told audio at your fingertips, now is a good time. Meet the young boy who befriends a rather lazy dragon. And if you don't already know that St. George is considered the premier dragon slayer of the day, you will after listening to this tale unfold. Thing is, St. George isn't really into it in this case, and besides, the boy doesn't want his newfound friend to be St. George's victim.
This fun story will have you hooked from the opening words.Colorful detail and authentic situations in the life of each animal make these not only memorable stories, but also learning experiences that will stick with the listener for a lifetime. My bet is that these tales of ''Lotor (the raccoon) on His Own,'' ''Osa's (the bear) Moving Day,'' and ''Hazard (the coyote) Helps the Pack'' will be listened to again and again and again.There is also nothing quite like hearing what goes through Pandora's mind when, during the time when Mother Earth was young, all was sweetness and light, there were no adults, and there was nothing for children to do but play all day long, a mysterious box arrives at her home. A package with voices that beckon her to open it, which she can't resist doing. As we come to learn, it contained the whole collection of earthly sorrows. Once again, the descriptions of what comes to pass are thought-provoking and magical in their own way. The good news is that even though Pandora's actions changed the world forever more (in not such good ways), hope, too, was in that box—and it is hope that we humans can turn to time after time to see us through. Truly well-told and important stories for all growing minds.
