Lovely selection of stories read really well by the author with her songs. My son is a massive Julia Donaldson fan and loves listening to these in the car. Even if I do have the squash and a squeeze song stuck in my head it’s completely worth it.

Clearly the stories are all fantastic, however, this book is seriously disappointing and let down by the fact they haven't bothered to name the chapters. There are 8 "Terrific Tales", each has the audio story and then a song . Frustratingly, the chapters are named Chapter 1 - Chapter 16 with no indication which chapters relates to which story or song. It's really frustrating when my 2 year old asks for a specific story and I have to spend minutes listening to the first 10 seconds or so of each chapter until I find the right one. Initially I thought maybe it was a limitation of Audible, however, I quickly found other books in my library have the chapter names included. Poor effort from the publisher. Had I used a credit to purchase, I'd be asking for a refund.

Why aren't the chapters named!?
