Poor

A shame such a good story was ruined by the mumbling drivel of the narrator.

Alan Munro helps me sleep

I give this narrator 5 stars, simply because he helps me sleep when nothing else will work, and his voice is a good alternative to meditation! Some people would see this as a negative, and I must admit I don't know what the stories are about 90% of the time, but at least my anxiety goes away when I start to listen and I can sleep soundly.

Jungle book

This version of Jungle Book was very old fashioned, using thee and thy and read by a very indistinct American reader. It successfully sent all the grandchildren in the car asleep!👎

The Jungle Book

Just what I remember, well narrated, really evokes the India of the Raj. Well worth buying.

Miss understood book

I got this free from Amazon I have to say I don't get the reviews u can't understand the narrator.. If anything he is a bit robotic but is fine I thought he may have a strong Indian accent but nope American a bit quiet but fine.. Good book and fun to lisdten to. Don't expect songs or any of the "faux Disney" stuff if your looking for that then be disappointed.. Good book and fun.

This book was reduced to free on Amazon with the kindle book.. I stumbled on to it and thought why not.. Amazon or audible didn't not ask me to do this and it being free was how i fiund it on there web site..all thoughts n comments Are my own .. I do not paid for reviews and I'm not in anyway officiated with Amazon and all there subsidiaries ect..
