Editorial Reviews
Washington Irving's eerie tale of romantic rivalry along the Hudson pits the new schoolmaster Ichabod Crane against the local hero and bully, Brom Bones, for the hand of Katrina Van Tassel. This haunting drama climaxes with the appearance of one of the great, legendary ghosts of all time: the headless horseman. This spirited adaptation reflects all the wit, fun and drama of the early American classic. Illustrated by Robert Van Nutt. Ages 6 and up

This is one of my favorite Rabbit Ears stories. Glenn Close gives a masterful dramatic reading of the story and the music and sound effects add to the sheer creepiness. Great for Halloween. The illustrations by Robert Van Nutt are incredibly rich in color and have a kind of period style that fit perfectly with the story's setting. There is a companion CD that has the exact same narration by Close and music by Tim Story (Audible.com) and a Kindle eBook version so you could listen and "turn the pages" at the same time.

but with Glenn Close narrating you can't go wrong. I thought it would be more animated but it was still a well narrated story by one of my favorite actresses. Plus, I wanted to relive a classic in classic form because I forgot the original ending. Also because it reminded me of the first time I heard it. I was in the second or third grade and we had substitute teacher this particular day. He decided to read the story to us and I thought from the description of Icabod Crane that he was describing himself. The man was the same height and build as the character. He even had a pointy nose. The only differences were the teacher was African American, had an Afro and wore glasses but the description had us all saying the same thing, "He's talking about himself." If you're wondering how we could have thought that about him, he knew the story by heart....or at least a majority of it. *wink* Enjoy!!!

Lovely illustrations and nicely read. I enjoyed the animation that added to the story, rather than overwhelmed it. Fun storytime presentation!
