The Wild Robot Escapes Audiobook

Quotes

• “The narrator, Kathleen McInerney, is adept at finding the warm pulse beneath Roz’s monotone delivery, and the array of old-school radio sound effects—clicks and squeaks and moos and honks—gives The Wild Robot Escapes a texture beyond words. Best of all, listeners get a bonus PDF of Brown’s spooky and evocative black-and-white illustrations.”
