Uncle Remus & Friends

Uncle Remus, that genial old storyteller, knows how to spin these wonderful tales about the 'criteers' that the little 6 year old boy (and many of us adults!) love to listen to. Yet the 'Brer Rabbit and 'Brer Fox and the others sound a lot like the people all around us. They tell stories about personalities and faults and virtues in a way that is unique to Uncle Remus. As the shadows grow longer outside, draw up a rocking chair next to the little boy, settle back and listen to the wise old man tell these stories. These 17 stories were specially chosen from Uncle Remus: His Songs and Sayings and include The Wonderful Tar-Baby Story, Miss Cow falls a Victim to Mr. Rabbit; Mr. Fox and the Deceitful Frogs; Mr. Rabbit grossly deceives Mr. Fox and lots of others.

This recalls my relatives in Virginia, reading to us on the porch swing. Wonderful reader! Each character comes to life!

Wonderful. Easy on the ears.

I'm less than a minute into the first story and I can already tell the reader is going to do a great job. I didn't really like the one being read by Mark. I really like Phil's style of reading and he does justice to the slave dialect. Other readers just sound kind of weird doing it. Although I will admit that it's not an easy dialect to read aloud.
