  • Best children’s stories ever !

    I love the PBS series about James Herriot and his Vet practice in Yorkshire ! These stories are some of his favorite so I thought I’d read them to my grandchildren ! They don’t sit still for longer than a few minutes but after over 45 mins listening to these stories , they asked for yet another ! Absolutely wonderful stories and very well written ! I highly recommend this book ! Illustrations are rich and colorful ! Best childrens’ book ever !!!!

  • Wonderful stories for children

    I was looking for something to read to children that was interesting and that also contained good, uplifting material. These are wonderful stories told by an English veterinarian from his practice in the first half of the 20th century. Based in real life, they showcase interesting animals and the people who care about them. No blood, no gore, just good clean fun!

  • Thank you!

    I am a pre-school/kindergarten teacher and I read these books at storytime. However, I purchase these books for my grand-children who range from two on up. I appreciate your efforts to make them so attractive both from the listener and the reader. Thank you.
