" As an audiobook, it doesn't quite hold my attention. Although, hearing the original stories does add something. There is a lot more to the stories than the popularized versions, and the original does add something. The stories make more sense now. "

" Re-reading it because of the time of year!:) I wish I was reading it on a mountain again, though! "

" I have read Rip Van Winkle, but I'm not sure about the Other Stories; it's okay although very far fetched. "

Susan | 1/14/2013
" I forgot all about the negative description of Rip's wife which really turned me off to the story. Otherwise, it is a classic and when read aloud about 10 pages on average puts the little one to sleep when nothing else will. "

" I think that is story was good. I lliked it because I find the main character quite funny. My favorite part was when they described him riding a horse and Mr. Weise,my teacher, drew a funny picture. I see a little bit of myself in him because I always creep myself by reading weird/scary stories

" Who knew Americans could write. I think I enjoyed the vignettes of English life the most. Some of the stories did not interest me. Even in the telling of a not so interesting story I found joy.
