Elegant children's stories written and read by Carly Simon,
By A Customer
This review is from: Carly Simon's Bells, Bears, and Fishermen (Audio Cassette)
I am so happy to find this audiobook again! I played it in the car for my oldest daughter to calm her when she was a baby. Carly Simon's language and voice is soothing and musical to the ear. I need it again now because my oldest daughter is now 8, and is learning to write using "descriptive language". Carly Simon's writing for these stories is so vivid that my daughters and I feel like we are the little bear who cannot sleep because the moon is full and the breeze is coming in through our window and we just must listen to music and dance, we feel like the boy running up the bell tower for the first time to ring the bells welcoming Santa to the town called Noel because his old grandfather is too tired to continue the tradition today- the glorious bells cheers the boy's saddened sister. In the third story we feel like the maiden living with a sailor on a faraway island where life moves rythmically like the tides (my cousin disliked this story because the maid and the fisherman are not married and he leaves her to return to the sea-my two girls (age 5 & 8) are so enthralled by Carly Simon's voice and words that they don't even think about this issue). Do not pass up the chance to introduce your children to what beautiful wrirting sounds like when read by a musician like Carly Simon.
