This CD is a pleasure to listen to, and it is great for when I am occupied and cannot read to her. My 2 year old loves listening to this CD. She is a big Eric Carle/ Bill Martin Jr fan, carrying the books around with her constantly.
Think about it, you can look at the book you have, and hear the audio in Spanish, it's a great learning tool. and, don't hesitate, go ahead and buy it. I would like this to be a practical review, because I almost don't buy this CD, since there is not much info about it and the tracks are not detailed, but it's oh so worth it.**First four tracks are the books in English (Brown Bear, Polar Bear, Panda Bear, and Baby Bear)**Tracks 5-8 are all four books in Spanish (It doesn't state whose voice it is, but she sounds like a native speaker, the lady is actually funnier than Gwyneth).**Track 9 is Bill Martin Jr. himself reading "Brown Bear" (I didn't like it, but it's interesting)**Tracks 10 and 11 are interviews with Eric Carle.So, I hope this helps.
A great gift for young children. My young grandaughter was mesmerized by the songs and words.
It has been reprinted almost countless times in a variety of editions. I learned the answer to that question with the first few minutes of this reading by Academy-Award winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow.
So captivating is her voice and delivery that the stories come to life in listener's minds as if for the first time.It's a special treat to have all of the tales available on one CD, there couldn't be a more perfect bedtime story. She offers a warm, winning narration of the Bear stories that enchants both young and older ears.
As much as I enjoy audio books I'll admit that my initial reaction to this one wasn't overly enthusiastic. To top that, what could these stories possibly be without seeing Eric Carle's iconic illustrations.
