Story:
An interesting collection of stories. Some, like "Peter and the Wolf" or "Robinson Crusoe" you will have heard of or be familiar with. Others, like "How the Salt got into the Sea" or the one of the cave of the four winds or the one with the little mole, were completely new to me.
There are quite a few tales, which are obviously of native American origin and it's fascinating how they interacted and understood the nature around them.
Be warned, this aren't Disney fairy tales, here animals die or the mole is scorched blind by the sun, but nevertheless they all have a happy ending. (Well, maybe not really for the mole, despite finding a lifelong friend.)

Narration:
Rebecca Ehrenpreis does a fine job. At one point she sings a little tune according to the text and I loved it. A very pleasant and soothing voice, perfect for the story collection.

Overall:
Not everybody will love this collection of Children's Bedtime Stories, because here we have the classics and as usual they are more brutal, than Disney and other modern adaptations.
Personally, I truly enjoyed them, as they also offer an interesting insight into native American life and how they appreaciated and understood the nature and animals around them. An excellent narration adds to the enjoyment.

I enjoyed these stories and think children would like them too. To me they are more orientated toward boys then girls. But both would enjoy them.

They have some violence in them but it’s children’s violence and what you would see in a cartoon. There is no bad language and no sex. Which is what you would expect in a children’s book.

I enjoyed the narration. Characters voices are a little similar . Her voice was nice and soothing. I feel her voice suited the stories.

These brilliantly written stories are just the right length to hold a child's attention and listen to 1 or 2 at bedtime. The narration is wonderful and calming with a great range of voices making this truly magical to listen to.
