I really enjoyed the documentation approach to story-telling rather than straight narration.<br /><br />Enjoy!JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508267865632365231.post-21704151545276766532012-01-23T08:13:38.075-08:002012-01-23T08:13:38.075-08:00Monique: I read this one with my ears too and thou...Monique: I read this one with my ears too and thought the audio version was particularly well done. <br /><br />I definitely count listening to an audiobook as "reading" the book.
