Children's ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Stories for Seven-Year-Olds
Enid Blyton · 2024
🎙 Narrated by Joe Eyre
76/100
👍 Worth It
Sweet, bite-sized Blyton tales — a pixie painting flowers, a toy horse coming to life — exactly the gentle bedtime fare seven-year-olds love. Some of it shows its age with old-fashioned British sensibilities, but nothing concerning here. Joe Eyre's narration is a simple, solid children's read that does the job well.
