Beautifully read book.
This is a sensitive story which gives a lot of time to developing life like characters.
I feel that everyone would grow in kindness by listening to this wonderful story.
I highly recommend it for young kids, older kids and adults, since I doubt that anyone would be disappointed.

Exciting, fast moving story for young kids... but is just as entertaining for older kids and adults (especially in the car). Our family found this audiobook a lot of fun! Also, we find that listening to these kind of stories refreshing after listening to an intense audiobook.

This read of the book is completely brought to life by Thandie Newton. Even my 7 year old daughter is drawn in and is able to follow the story. I highly recommend this book. The story is so old, and yet highly relevant to today too, as Charlotte Bronte explores equality in society.

My children and I have got to adore the slightly wacky stories and characters which Tove Jansson has created.
The more we listen to them, the more we love them.
Very sweet.

This series of books is the most exciting my children and I have listened to yet!
Once again, Catherine Kellgren has done an amazing job at the voices!
Thank you.

This is my favourite of Tove Jansson's Moomin books.
Each chapter is a complete story, where she explores the psychology of a given situation.
The feelings of her characters are so well portrayed.
I highly recommend this book to be enjoyed by kids with their parents.
You will all get something out of it and have a good laugh at the same time.

As with all of Dahl's books, these stories are great.
Well read, and great to hear Dahl himself!
However, we were disappointed that the stories were condensed... they are not nearly as good as 'the read thing'

As with all of the Incorrigible Children...
My kids say that this is their favourite set of books we have read this year (and we read a lot)
May be a bit scary for kids under 7 years old to listen to on their own.
This series of book is read by the most amazingly tallented woman.
Well done.
