Do your children love to listen to stories on CD? This is a favourite activity of our family, especially when we are travelling. Jim Weiss’ storytelling audio appeals to all ages with exceptional recordings of adventures, classic literature, history and science. While Jim tells stories in his own words, he maintains the integrity of the source material in rich language that appeals to grown-ups and children alike. His style is that of a beloved and trusted parent or grandparent, using easy-to-understand, vivid language, occasionally enhanced by explanations and asides.
