THE STORY OF BABAR & THE TRAVELS OF BABAR

These first two in the series of Babar classics take Babar the elephant from his experiences in a large city where he meets the Old Lady, to his becoming king, through the adventure of Babar and Celeste on their honeymoon. The warm Gallic charm of actor Louis Jordan, combined with original music by Don Heckman, certainly enhances the Jean de Brunhoff text. With a lively pace, clever narration and interesting music, this recording is appropriate for any and all ages. M.R. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: APR 93]
