Customer Reviews

No CD :(

Very sad that CD wasn’t included. At only $5 it isn’t worth the hassle to return, but I would if I could!

Beautiful illustrations

I remember this book from when I was a little girl the art is so beautiful! I would stare at the illustrations for hours.

No Cd

Ordered a Book & CD. (Book & CD) is listed in the title 2x. There was no mention anywhere that the book would not include the CD. VERY FRUSTRATING!

CD was not included!

I love this book, the illustrations are amazing! I was very disappointed that the CD was not included!

Incredible illustrations

The illustrations in this book will delight fairy-lovers both young and old. The accompanying CD narrates the stories at a reasonable, easy-to-follow pace. The stories are sweet. Santa brought this for my 5 year old daughter, and I am not sure who loves it more, her or I! I expect this to be a keepsake book that we will enjoy through her early teen years.

Really Great Stories on CD

We have two of the Shirley Farber CDs, (this one and The Adventures of Martha B Rabbit), and every night my four year old daughter listens to one of them on CD and it lulls her into sleep faster than any other method we have tried. This Book & CD include Bedtime Stories, The Enchanted Forest, and The Tooth Fairy. Shirley Barber's Fairy Collection starts with Bedtime Stories, a series of darling shorties. My daughter is usually asleep after two or three of them. The reader has a calming Austrialian sounding accent. She also loves the Enchanted Forest, which I usually don't play for her at bedtime because its a little more exciting. The Tooth Fairy, is another sweet one, very magical. This story was her first introduction to the concept of a tooth fairy. I usually read this one to her, as the pictures are very darling. When she gets older and is starting to read, I can imagine that having listened to the CD so much will help her read the words. And, she can also listen along as she tries to read. I highly reccommend this one, as well as The Adventures of Martha B Rabbit for little ones who like gentle fairy tales. Thank you Shirley Barber!

Enchanting...absolutely love it!

My five year old snuggles in her bed for this one! Charming...

Excellent Book and Excellent Support

My children got this book for Christmas from Santa (Wink).They love this book, they read and listen to this book more thanplaying with their toys.3 weeks after getting this book my daughter broke the CD while putting it back into the book. I contacted the publisher and they sent me a free replacement CD. Awesome Support and Awesome Book. This time I made a backup copy of the CD. I recommend this Book. My 9, 7, and 3 year old girls love the book.

B eautiful Pictures and Stories

This book is wonderful for anyone that enjoys fairy tales. The most beautiful pictures are found in this book, as well as charming bedtime stories. The CD that is included with the book tells all the stories so your little one can read by themselves.
