 Pure Magic Feb 22, 2011
By Papillon Picasso
I am so completely enchanted with this CD, that I was amazed to see that anyone was anything but delighted with this wonderful find. I understand that people are unhappy that there wasn't a book. But NONE of the Rabbit Ears CD's come with a read-along book. They are simply for listening to & enjoying. So I feel that they should be judged on their quality...and as far as that is concerned, this is one of my FAVORITE Rabbit Ears CD's... (and I own them all.) It's a jewel...ESPECIALLY the story of "The Tailor of Gloucester." The combination of Streep's exquisite talent for story telling combined with the music of The Chieftains is soooooo beautiful. As we all know, when you have little ones, you get used to hearing stories a thousand times. But honestly, I truly enjoy hearing this particular disc over & over again....and that is saying something!

 Where's the Book? Nov 17, 2009
By Bibliomaniac
I purchased this because the Rabbit Ears series was so good in the past; the originals were sets: a cassette tape with the book. I thought that these were the same set, just with a CD rather than the old fashioned tapes. However, there is no book. The book sets are a great way to encourage reading since young readers can follow along with the book. Also, the pictures are helpful for children just developing the ability to visualize the story. At the very least, the book makes the connection between books and good stories. The books are not available separately either, so I do not intend to purchase Rabbit Ears' products for home or school.

Beatrix Potter's best stories comes to life! Jul 01, 2008
By Kirara
"dragonsonic4"
I love these stories because they are extremely soothing to listen to and also extremely exciting, especially in the story "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" where Peter has to escape from Mr. McGregor's garden. I also love Lyle Mays' music as he gives "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" a jazzy feel to the story. Meryl Streep's narration is extremely soothing as she narrates all three stories, which are "The Tale of Peter Rabbit," "The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher," and "The Tailor of Gloucester." Also, in "The Tailor of Gloucester," the Chieftains performs magnificently as they portray an ancient times rhythm to the story.

Beatrix Potter CD Jun 26, 2008
By Frankie Novak
"Frankie"
I was very disappointed with the audio quality of this cd and that a read along book did not come with the cd. I gave it as a gift to my grandson and just recently had the opportunity to listen to it.
I purchased it because I had bought a cd/book combo of another Potter story in Borders that I was extremely pleased with. I will request a refund of this purchase.
