I thought the authors did a nice job of letting you know which character was specking and who's perspective it was coming from.
ReplyDeleteI listened to the An Unusual Usual Day at the Ohio Zoo. I enjoyed it very much. It made me smile. The characters acted their parts well, the snake hissed, the little girl spoke as a small child would, the zookeeper was very forgetful. They all put effort into their recordings. They all mentioned the zoo, the backpack, the zookeeper and the snake.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to add that the animal sounded like a happy little critter who looked forward to an adventure.
