MINNIE AND MOO AND THE POTATO FROM PLANET X

Even the page-turning instructions are dramatic on this tape. Barbara Caruso tells listeners what sound to listen for to turn pages with a great flourish, like a conductor directing a great orchestra. Goofy cows Minnie and Moo meet an alien from Planet Potato who needs milk for spaceship fuel. Caruso sounds dizzy as Minnie, making readers shake their heads at her lack of common sense. She is practical as Moo, always factual and precise. Children who appreciate animal tales will enjoy this production. A.G.H. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 04]
