Customer Reviews
love it
my childhood book, still love it and always will.
Attention to detail lacking
It's nice to have classic books reimagined without ruining the original title. The interactive experience is fun for little ones and immerses them even further in the story, but sadly this is let down by the narration. Firstly it's quite sad that a classic English book for sale in UK is narrated by an American. Although she has a beautiful voice, it doesn't quite fit. Secondly the narrator doesn't follow the book and makes numerous mistakes throughout with many being grammatically wrong too which is unfortunate. A shame. You would think an all time classic could command more attention to detail. Ultimately lazy.
