THE 101 DALMATIANS

Puppy-snatcher Cruella de Vil will stop at nothing to acquire dalmatian pups for the purpose of making spotted fur coats of them. This time a litter of 15 pups belonging to an innocent couple is her target. Martin Jarvis reads the script straight in a sweet, breathy voice, without differentiating the various roles. He enthusiastically relates the kidnapping and return of the puppies, and--for the youngest dog lovers--conveys Cruella's villainous intentions without going overboard. If you don't have a VCR in your car, this well-done audiobook will entertain the kids just as well as Disney. A.G.H. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 02]
