Experiencing a classic as new

Overall we loved this audio book. Can highly recommend it.

Hearing the actual story compared to the the well-known Disney version was different but the story is well written and we could imagine the world of Bambi and be immersed in it. We loved this version even more.

The narration was excellent with various voices for each character.

Great rendition

This is a great Rendition of Felix Salten's book. I highly recommend it to any one.

It’s not for me

I really like happy endings and I do like Disneys version much better. Also I think it’s hard for children to understand. Some tings I didn’t even understand
