Story telling at its best
This is an exact reading of the book "James Herriot's Treasury for Children", with the accent to do it justice. I've loved the book for years, and was delighted to find this recording. Listening to this while following the beautiful book illustrations makes a perfect sharing time with your children. The recorded voice is enjoyable, and helps the listener gain an appreciation of the veterinarian's stories. The CDs and book are a study of people, and the animals they loved. Definetly recommended!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
