What great stories! April 1, 2008
I bought this for my kids to listen to in the car, and I think I enjoy it as much, if not more than them. I never really liked Maurice Sendak but the reader, Tammy Grimes, really brings these stories to life. Great Purchase!

I am so happy I bought this book on tape. My daughter is very entertained with it. We commute together every day. She really enjoys the story about the little girl with the sign on her door. It is actually pretty funny. I would recommend it to anyone!!!

I personally never liked Sendak's WTWTA. Or In the Night Kitchen. Or Chicken Soup with Rice. Or anything ever illustrated or written by him. So, I'm not a fan. Got it?But WOW, was I ever wrong. I just didn't get it before, but listening to Tammy Grimes narrate and with the addition of Herr Mozart, it's like being transported into what must have been a fascinating mind who could write so well for children. Buy this CD for your 4 year old + child with imagination to spare and he'll be begging for it. It's become a TREAT 'round these parts.
Even as adults, it's still amazing to me and my siblings July 23, 2002

My siblings and I listened to this wonderful cassette as children and to this day treasure it. We have passed it's wonders onto our own young relatives and soon to our own children. It will stay with you forever for the words of Maurice Sendak make your imagination take flight and the voice of Tammy Grimes is so captivating; the best I have ever heard these fabulous stories read! The addition of the music of Mozart truly inspires the mind of children and adults alike.
