Little Grey Rabbit's Party

With less expensive packages, one gets what one pays for. Here is an attractive Little Grey Rabbit book with Margaret Tempest's well-loved illustrations, although some are rather blurred. The story has been reduced to 18 minutes, but the text is liberally interspersed with pictures - a great encouragement for the young reader and a guide for the non-reader following the story on the tape with the book. Nannette Newman's narration is competent and there are adequate, but not subtle sound effects. There are two other titles in this series; they're better than many of the £2.99 packages around.
