Such a good narrator!!!

I am not going to review this book because just about everyone knows it by now. I had to review the audio book though because this is one of the best narrators I have ever heard. My first and favorite reading that BJ Harrison did was one of the Jeeves books by Wodehouse. This one was just as good and I loved hearing the characters brought to life, it is quite entertaining. I like to listen to audiobooks when I am going to sleep and this reading of a classic is one of my favorite. I can't even count the number of times I have listened to this book.

Love

What did you like best about this story?

It is truly weird.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, twice.

Any additional comments?

I became curious after hearing commentary on Carrol's' math roots but picked up the book for my youngest daughter. Oh my God, I was floored by the originality in content. Especially in Sci-fi so many stories try to create an original world but none compare to this. I loved it.

Childhood Memories

As a retired teacher & reading specialist, I love good literature for all ages. What fun it was to listen to a favorite book of excellent "kiddy lit" from my early reading years of grade school. Good literature is good literature, no matter the genre or age group! I'm grateful for my mom, who recently left this earthly plane of existence, for teaching me to read at an early age & especially for passing on her love of reading to me & my brothers. This is the true reason I became a teacher & reading specialist! (I love you & miss you, Mom.)

paid ¢.50 for a classic

I was surprised to hear that this was a podcast which means I probably paid .¢.50 for something that was free somewhere but I can't complain. B.J. Harrison does a wonderful job at narrating this classic and so I feel it was ¢.50 well spent.

A classic.

Lovely version of an old favorite . Highly recommended. The reader does a great job with all of the different voices.

Wonderful!

This audiobook may not be the best of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll but it is very good and it is by far the least expensive. Narrator B. J. Harrison brings this 1865 British children's classic to life.

WITH WHAT PORPOISE?

DON'T BE NERVOUS OR I'LL HAVE YOU EXCUTED ON THE SPOT
Silly at times, Deep at times, always original. It might seem violent at times, with all the talking about chopping off of heads, but it never happens. I like the way they solve that problem. Little kids might like the getting big and bigger stuff, it annoyed me. Falling in the hole was fun, the tea party was interesting and I liked the trail and I liked the card people. It seemed longer than I remembered and I not sure in how it all fit together. EVERYTHING HAS GOT A MORAL IF ONLY YOU CAN FIND IT. I could not find it.

UGLIFY
Been some complaints about the narrator, I had none. Make sure and listen to the sample, that should be enough to tell you if the narrator is a problem for you.

Not for me

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Someone with a better tolerance for the reader

Would you be willing to try another book from Lewis Carroll? Why or why not?

Absolutely. Alice is a classic

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Terrible voice for reading

Loved listening to this book!

This was our first audible book and we had a great time listening to the narrator during car rides. My daughter (3) loved the voices he made for each character and the songs he sang. Great experience!
