Rabbit Ears Treasury of Storybook Classics: Volume One: Pecos Bill, Puss in Boots
Two classics feature well-loved comedians. In the first, Robin Williams adopts the voice of an old cowboy telling the story of Pecos Bill. Backed by the lively music of Ry Cooder, Williams lets loose with energetic vocal antics, whether hes dropping his false teeth mid-story or describing Bill and his coyote family. Puss in Boots, the story of a clever feline who transforms his master into a prince, is read by Tracey Ullman. Her voice shifts easily from the cool British tones in the narrative to over-the-top French accents in the dialogue. Both stories are fun to listen to, and  rich with the literary and auditory detail of the Rabbit Ears series.  J.C.G.  © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine--Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
