Read by Prunella Scales
These classic stories have just been re-released. They make ideal listening for very young children and Prunella Scales combines professionalism with motherliness in her voice. The Little Red Fox's adventures start when Mrs Badger takes pity on the little orphan fox she finds in the wood and takes him home to bring up with her own badger children. One night his wicked Uncle Rufus captures him... Snug and Serena are the mice in the Brown Mouse stories and they too narrowly escape danger, this time from hawks and weasels. Improved by abridgement, Alison Uttley's country stories make leisurely listening.
