Love the story, but the narrator was bad

My favorite part was when they figured out the mystery of the yellow house. It was very interesting. I suggest boxer children, so please try it and I hope you like it👍❤️ but they could’ve had a better narrator. That’s the only thing is that they had a bad narrator, about it so if you don’t like bad narrators, don’t read the book.😔

My 7 year old son loved listening to this! He said his favorite character was Benny and he loved the part about finding Bill.

I’m sorry narrator, but the voices are just horrible, why did you even attempt?!

Love the book, the voices are way too soft, it sounds like they’re all singing ineffectually.

This is a wonderful children’s series

I love how these books have just the right amount of mystery and how you get to know each of the characters very well.
