Customer Reviews
A Lot of Fun!
I really enjoyed the narrated/animated version of “Albert and the Wind”
because it’s so dynamic. Illustrator, Eoin Clarke did the animations
and they are both cute and funny. Ian Brown, the author, is also the narrator and does a different voice for each of the characters. I’d enjoy seeing him do it live with an audience full of kids. For that matter, I’d enjoy watching a kindergarten teacher do it with 33
five-year-olds on the carpet in front of her. You know the old ROTFL acronym? Well, that’s what they’d all be doing… And maybe the teacher along with them. Lots of fun for kids of all ages.
