Reviews

“Children can shut their eyes and imagine a world that revolves around them, where bears dance at news of their birth, and where the moon smiles at them and the night wind whispers their name. The story also has delightful interactive moments when kids are directed to whisper their names and wiggle their toes.” —AudioFile, Earphones Award Winner

“This set would make a great new baby or Christmas gift.” —Ashley's Closet blog
