The Wind Boy
Kindergarten-Grade 4-Lorrie Holt delightfully narrates this abridged audio version of Ethel Cook Eliot's 1923 tale (Raven Rock Pr., 1996) about a brother and sister who are able to see into a magical fairy world hovering right over our own. Reading with an ethereal quality perfect for this old-fashioned story, Holt helps create a verbal image of Eliot's inviting mystical world. Brief musical interludes at the beginning of each chapter and at key points throughout the story add to the tale's overall airy tone. The quality of the audio is clear, the reading is well paced, and the story will appeal to a wide range of ages.Lori Craft, Downers Grove Public Library, ILCopyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
