LIGHTNING LUCY

The Kings don't think there's anything special about their four-year-old daughter -- until she begins to fly. Lucy's special powers lead to lots of fun and heroic feats as she zooms and swoops in and out of trouble. Lightning Lucy travels in style, too, shining with a bright crackling glow and trailing a cascade of shimmering sparks. Bennett reads in a rich, easy-to-understand British accent and expressive characterizations. Lucy's voice brims with mischief, brother Nick's voice is pesky and whiny, and Mr. and Mrs. King's voices mix loving concern and exasperation with the incredulity and helplessness of coping with a daughter who flies. A fine production and a good choice for family listening. C.R.A. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 95]
