![]() ![]() A classic book read by a classic performer.Ī must have for anyone who was lucky enough to have the book read to them as a child. For millions of British kids growing up in the 60s and 70s there is no voice that talking animals could possibly have other than his (except, perhaps, Willie Rushton). Just hearing Johnny Morris's voice again catapulted me back to childhood. ![]() ![]() What about Johnny Morris’s performance did you like? The great use of language and the lyrical quality of the prose. I am very disappointed that Kipling's verses that accompany each story have been excluded from the audio book. With the audio book you miss out on the second Taffy story, How The Alphabet Was Made, as it is so dependant on the illustrations (it's well worth the effort to track down a print version with the original illustrations). Would you consider the audio edition of The Complete Just So Stories to be better than the print version? ![]()
