By: Diane Fanning

Narrated by: Sally Blake

The nation wept when news broke of nearly three-year-old Caylee Anthony's disappearance from her home in Florida in July 2007. The search for Caylee made front-page headlines. But Casey Anthony continued to lie to law enforcement about her daughter's whereabouts, complicating their search for the truth.

Soon, Casey was the most hated person in America. This updated version of the book covers the murder trial of Caylee's mother and its unexpected outcome. The tragedy of Caylee Anthony will haunt you for years to come.

Well written but...

Quite possibly the worst narration I've ever heard. Shame, because the author did a great job.

pretty interesting stuff.

the story was well read. still find it hard to believe that this lil baby went through so much & still no rest for her. so sad.

great story

loved it listened to it all over the house and in the car. great narrative.

Good Narrator and Compelling Narrative

I am not sure what is with all the negative reviews about the narrator. Narration was high quality. Good information, family background, and flow of narrative. Some areas could have used more depth and details. Overall, good true crime.

AWFUL NARRATOR

Would you try another book from Diane Fanning and/or Sally Blake?

Diane? Sure. Sally? No way.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

I'm actually not done yet but I feel so passionate about the narration that I wanted to comment on it.

How could the performance have been better?

I cannot believe they didn't scrap this and start over with someone new. Most of the time the narrator sounds like a robot with a first grade education. When she is reading the dialogue of Cindy Anthony she sounds whiny and panicked no matter the context.

Did Mommy's Little Girl inspire you to do anything?

Actually, yes! Not to take away from the serious subject matter, but I have been considering becoming a narrator myself and this performance gave me a lot of confidence.
