Editor reviews

Morris Gleitzman and Ruth Schoenheimer deliver captivating performances of the 14 stories in Gleitzman’s collection Give Peas a Chance. The author, who has a large fan base, is one of today’s most distinctive and adored voices in children’s writing. Give Peas a Chance features new characters, as well as old favorites. On this audiobook, Ginger and her dog throw an epic party; Wilton the worm chances upon Aristotle the nose germ; and Ben is determined to save the world by refusing to eat his greens.

Critic reviews

"A brilliantly funny writer." (The Sunday Telegraph)
"Gleitzman's short stories bring together humor, current events, whimsy, and food for thought. Story topics run the gamut from babysitting for infant twins to a creative solution for global warming, a dad who's new to text-messaging, and germs going on vacation. Gleitzman rises to the challenge of narrating his own work. He knows each character intimately and brings nuances of voice, inflection, and timing to each, resulting in richer characters and deeper engagement for listeners. The pace is brisk; in fact, the combination of zany stories and Australian accent and word usage can cause brief moments of scrambling to make all the connections. The effort is well worth it."
