Editor reviews

Of course, everyone knows the beloved tale of the Ugly Duckling, who starts as a homely little thing but matures into the most beautiful swan of them all. For ages, kids have been learning not to judge a book by its cover from this Hans Christian Anderson classic. This Audible Kids version of this story is warm-hearted and funny. Walter Zimmerman, Jack Benson, and cast have fun with so many characters and voices. With ease, they play snooty and beautiful swans, loving mothers, and rickety grandfathers. At 24 minutes long, this audio story will surely delight all little ducklings before bed.
