Great audio

What a great audio. I’m definitely going to be getting the paperback.
Great characters, listen as Dusti and Drantos overcome many obstacles before coming to an understanding.
Really enjoyed the narrator, she gave different voices to each character.

Unfunny

Listened thinking it would be funny and factual. But the jokes are extremely rubbish. Might be entertaining for children.

Scared of Snakes

Loved it, except one, which was avoided due to phobia of said mammal. Just wish Sue, of whom I am a huge fan, would have spoken a little more slowly.

Fun, interesting and just the right length

Loved these little 10-12 minute nuggets of gold on some of the weirdest creatures in the world.

Amusing

Very lighthearted and good for when yo want a quick listen. I love Sue's weird way of looking at the animals, however one can learn about them too.

Wrong balance between facts and comedy.

Lots of interesting information but detail sacrificed to make jokes. I would have liked more facts to get my teeth into.
