Review: Great stories covering a range of literature. They are well read. My only gripes are that the stories should have tracks (there are only two 35 minute tracks on each CD). Also the music at the start of each story is very loud compared to the narration. It's as if the levels haven't been sorted. It should be noted that the intro music to each story is the only music featured. So this isn't a problem when the stories start. I note that some reviewers see the lack of music and sound effects as a problem, however for me this was great as they were a great representation of the books featured. And less annoying. The stories are abridged, and as far as I can make out are pretty much verbatim (editing excluded) narrations featuring two stories to a disc. We have used them for our 4 year old and also the stories are good for adults too.

Review: These are good, apart from two things: 1. Some of the stories stop half way through (and have been like this from the first listen) 2. The music at the end is so loud that it wakes our child up once he has fallen asleep; not ideal!
