All Creatures Great and Small Audiobook

" I loved these books by James Herriot. A fascinating look at life in England at that time and vet medicine. "

" I first read this in the Reader's Digest when I was stuck in a relative's home with nothing to read. I immediately loved it. The Yorkshire setting is beautifully described, the characters fully drawn and the animal stories very realistic. A wonderfully comforting book to read. "

" This ranks as one of my favorite books :) Herriot's adventures in the countryside as he starts his veterinary practice are full of warmth, humor, compassion, & above all, his deep love for the animals & the clients he cares for. "

" Such a cozy read. I love this book. It is a favorite of my mom's and as such I have fond memories of her reading it and I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting it. "

" Really like this book, third time I read it now. "

" Very, very good narration by Christopher Timothy. I enjoyed every book in the series! "

" Read this years ago - every animal lover should read this. Delightful! "

" Just re-read for the first time in about 30 years! "

" this book totally makes you want to move to the Yorkshire dales "

" One of my fave books from my childhood. As an animal lover, I recommend this as a mandatory read. Great stories and so fun to be transported back in time. "

" My favorite book as a kid! "

" Read the whole series as a child, still own them! "

" This is a book I seem to never want to pick up and then when I do, I love it. "

" A classic - good summer book. Not as much about animals as I had expected, but interesting and amusing characters. Tricki Woo, Siegfried were favorites. It's obvious that Herriot loves his job, and he gives an expert account of being a country vet. "

" This was such a great book! I listened to the audio version and it was completely enjoyable. I was surprised how often it made me laugh out loud. Why haven't I read the book before now?! Highly recommended! "

" A beautiful, truthful ode to village life and love for . . . all creatures great and small. "

" If I run out of books to read- I can always go back to any of his series and read again. His stories are real. I can read them even when I'm tired-don't have to concentrate too much, so good to read when your stressed and want to relax. "

" I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy his stories. Now I need to read the other ones! "

" Read as a kid. Both the books and the tv series were entertaining and in some respects educational "

" I LOVE James Herriot's stories! What an amazing life he led. I still laugh at stories I've read and re-read for years on end. Small-town, salt of the earth fun. "

" Love any story which involves the plight of animals and those human beings who are taking care of their needs "

" Very sweet story about a Scottish vet living in the English countryside. His sense of humor is like no other I've ever read. This man is a true story teller. "

" Love the simplicity of this book, and love the author's dry British humor and storytelling!!!! This is a must for animal- and nature-lovers! "

" A very easy, fun, lightweight, and heartwarming true story! "

" Love this series! Maybe especially due to my background with animals and my experience as a Vet nure, but still...Love them! "

" I have read all of his books and love them. Wish they would come out for the kindle. "

" If you want to get an insight into the world of veterinans, e.g. the medical care required for the treament of animals and some of the deadyly animal diseases during the late 1930's this is the book for you. If you just want stories that revolve around animals then this too is the book for you. "

" Wonderful Animal Stories - two for the price of one! This is a keeper. "

" Really good book when reading for a short time...each chapter is a completely different story so you could open to the center of the book and understand everything. "

" Great stories by a great story teller. Laugh out loud funny. "

" Great Book. Loved the whole series "

" One of my very favorite feel-good books. I don't even know how many times I've reread this book and the others in the series! "

" James Herriot will always remind me of my mom. We used to watch the TV series on PBS when I was in elementary school. The books are just as great! "

" I wanted to be a vet for years of childhood. I loved James Herriot and this was my favorite. "

" Good for any child who has dreams of being a veterinarian! "
