Great story and read well except...
the volume of the singing part is louder than the story, not good for bedtime and the worst not is the really annoying woman at the end and in between sections who reads out loudly all the copyright info and wakes up your child and you when you've just fallen asleep!! Why?! it's such a failure of the point!
Aside from that the story is really nice and the singing good.
