I had never read this classic before. I'm going to be teaching it to my students in the new year so I had to be familiar with it. It was fun and whimsical! Not something I would've picked up on my own but I'm glad I read it. The narration in the audiobook was engaging and I'm considering keeping it as a resource for my students to help motivate them while they follow along with the paperback.
