    Reviews

    - AudioFile, April/May, 2004...
    Ashley Bryan is the consummate storyteller - at one with his stories and possessing a seemingly effortless command of the storyteller's craft. Rhythm, voice, and sound effects all blend into a singular listening experience.
     
    - Publishers Weekly, 4/04...
    "Bryan gives a joyous performance of his work on this recording...this project capitalizes on all the author's storytelling strengths. His enthusiasm and emphasis on certain passages will quickly captivate young listeners."
     
    - School Library Journal, 4/04...
    " Bryan performs six stories from his published works on this rousing collection. Bryan's tales come alive on the page with his stylized writing - and his delivery and vocal performance are a perfect match. Bryan creates an irresistable folktale experience."
