“Golden Voice Barbara Rosenblat brings her inimitable vocal energy and joy to every project, and this crisp production with original music is no exception. As with all good fairy tales, the fairies get the best lines, and Rosenblat, Noelle Dupuis, and Ellin Wallin have a wonderful time bickering and bantering as the three buzzing, bee-sized fairies who are in charge of protecting the newborn princess, Sleeping Beauty.”

Quotes
-
“Award-winning voice actor Barbara Rosenblat leads an able cast in giving proper nineteenth-century accents and voices to all our favorite iconic characters from one of the most beloved children’s classics in the English language…Georgia Lee Schultz…is especially good with the many whispered asides that stitch this adapted version together.”
— AudioFile on Alice In Wonderland -
“Georgia Lee Schultz provides a gentle and clear voice for the nineteenth century’s most beloved, most precocious child—Alice. All the characters are here in this full-cast audio adaptation of the 1871 sequel to Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland…This gentle production for younger listeners is a fine introduction to Lewis Carroll’s celebrated wit, wordplay, and surrealistic worlds.”
— AudioFile on Alice through the Looking Glass -
“Georgia Lee Schultz’s warm voice is ideal for portraying Snow White, particularly when she talks to her birds. Most impressive is Mary Ellen Herder’s Evil Queen; her harsh voice and disturbing cackle are spot-on. First-rate sound effects add atmosphere; for example, when the Evil Queen persuades Snow White to eat the poisoned apple, the crunch is as realistic as the sounds of the birds.“
— AudioFile on Snow White -
“This agreeable ensemble cast rendering of Cinderella holds appeal for fairy-tale fans of all ages…Superior sound effects such as the stepmother’s demanding bell, Cinderella’s sweeping, and the clock striking midnight add to the ambiance. Mary Ellen Herder is fully believable as the spiteful, greedy stepmother whose list of chores for Cinderella is never-ending.”

“Barbara Rosenblat…and a full cast deliver an enchanting interpretation of Burnett’s beloved children’s story…with animated comments and apt characterizations…Engaging and well-placed sound effects…create a full-bodied sense of place. This audiobook is a treasure and is sure to captivate listeners of all ages.”
