A delight! - By: Robert J. Waite, 28 Nov 2007
Roald Dahl's voice is a delight. A refreshing change from the modern obsession for sound effects & other over-the-top techniques that, apparently, are added to capture a child's attention.

My two children listen to Dahl's audio CDs & read his books constantly. They enjoy many other styles of reading & story telling but I do believe Dahl has a special place in their hearts - & mine!
Dull - By: , 27 Feb 2005
Its the pure tone of RD's voice that sends my daughter asleep! I don't think he reads it like it ought to be read to be honest. It is after alll aimed at children, & so should be adapted for such an audience. It doesn't make me any less of a RD fan, I adore his work!
Stick to writing Roald! - By: , 02 Jul 2004
Features the author doing a very bland reading job with no background music or whimsical sound effects. Only practical use I have found for it is to use it as an alternative method for making my 6 year old falll asleep.
All 4 stories - By: slea-reader, 24 Aug 2003
This CD set is fantastic value. If you are reading this you are obviously an RD fan & what makes these CD's so special is that they are read by the author. Not only is Roald Dahl one of the best authors of alll time but he has the great ability to tell the story exactly as it was meant to be read. My 2 children [aged 8&6] adore this at bedtime or on a long journey. All the stories appeal to both boys, girls & parents. We alll know the tales, but they are a pleasure to listen to. You will not regret this GREAT buy!
