Story
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Story
If you had to name a statue, any statue, odds are good you'd mention the Statue of Liberty. Have you seen her? She's in New York. She's holding a torch. And she's in mid-stride, moving forward. But why? In this fascinating and fun take on nonfiction, Dave Eggers investigates a seemingly small trait of America's most emblematic statue. What he finds is about more than history, more than art. What he finds in the Statue of Liberty's right foot is the powerful message of acceptance that is essential of an entire country's creation.

James Earl Jones
It's James Earl Jones reading an awesome story. What isn't to love? This was my first experience with Audible Kids but I was happily surprised to see the picture kept changing to show the pictures from the book that corresponded with what was happening so you don't lose the pictures, you just gain James Earl Jones :) also it cost less than $2 - totally worth it.

Beautiful sounds
James Earl Jones's voice was made for story telling. Beautiful story about cause and affect. Even the background sounds, drums, etc. added to the storie's aura.

Great Tale
I agree completely with all points in Gretchen SLP's review. This is great tale about what happens when you jump to conclusions -- or more precisely a tale of a domino effect of misunderstandings. Mosquito irritates Iguana with a terrible story which leads Iguana to take an action which is then misinterpreted by Snake, who then takes an action which is in turn misinterpreted by Rabbit, and on it goes. Fun, gorgeous illustrations (synchronized images), and James Earl Jones being fantastic James Earl Jones. My 5-yr old nephew really enjoyed it and it's a great lesson about jumping to conclusions and the unintended consequences of actions.

This book has captured my interest for 40 years!
I bought this book as an 8 year old back in the 70's from one of those Weekly Reader's order forms. It was so interesting and colorful! I just loved it! Of course, you don't see the illustrations with an audio book in the same way. But fear not! The fact that it is narrated by the incredible James Earl Jones, MORE than makes up for that! His voice makes you see those illustrations in your head and the voices he gives the different characters are wonderful! Highly recommend this book! Don't miss it!

A West African Tale, the ending had me laughing!
Synchronized images worked on my iPhone.
The story is so serious all the way until the end, and then I was laughing hysterically.
This is a great audiobook for kids of all ages. The synchronized images were beautiful and blended very well with the music and the narrator.
