👍 Worth It
This is Puffin doing what Puffin does well: a trusted publisher curating classic stories specifically calibrated for seven-year-olds, with Kristin Atherton's warm, practiced narration carrying it the whole way. I couldn't nail down the exact table of contents, but the publisher pedigree and wide library availability tell me this one's been vetted properly. Worth it for a reliable, professionally produced bedtime routine, and the narration is genuinely good.
