The performers are beloved actors Richard Thomas and Christine Ebersole. As
School Library Journal
noted: "Thomas reads three of the picture books in a warm baritone voice, using vocal inflections flawlessly. Ebersole's crisp enunciation is perfect and her vocal intonations are on-target as she reads six titles. Opening and closing credits are delivered with jazzy music playing in the background."
This collection is a wonderful additional way to enjoy these warm and funny picture book classics.
