Listeners eavesdrop on the action, and form their own impressions of how the characters look. Story plots, presented as live action plays, are filled with mystery and enchantment. While Growler tapes were created as entertainment for kids ages 4-12, their rich vocabulary and unique qualities have led them to be used in the classroom by mainstream educators, and homeschooler. This intelligent, gripping series is highly recommended. Child listeners will recognize Growlers as those individuals from their own lives who are always in bad moods, expect rules to be followed without question, and are often complainers.
Growlers hate to wait for anything.
They always look for someone to blame when something goes wrong, and are very suspicious of anyone who is not a Growler. This innovative series combines simulated newscasts and drama to develop intricate mysteries filled with amazing characters including Growlers, Huhu, and real children. The sound palette is unusually imaginative and combines sound effects, music, percussion and children's voices to create moods ranging from whimsy to suspense. The story plots are difficult to pinpoint sometimes, but this is by design. There is no narrator to fill in gaps.
