These stories are beautiful, but their narration suffers from the lack of an Australian narrator or even a narrator with a bit of personality

Beautiful stories but disappointing narration

My 7 month old son loved the Imagine book after hearing the audio. it became one of his favourites (even later without the audiobook and dad mimicking the sounds as best I could 😄). the soundscapes suit the pictures in the book to help bring those environments to life.
Didn't find any issues with the narration, unlike other reviews. perhaps the last story could do with a bit more pep toward the end but it's audience and the themes are older. hard to he chirpy when talking about a dead calf though

great companion to the Imagine board book
