Reviews

The Top and the Ball


(4.5 stars)

Such a lovely reading by Verity. I might have heard this story long ago. But it came to me with such freshness and vivacity that I simply marvelled. Andersen was a genius. But who would not have Verity to read these precious stories, not just to little children, but to grownups as well.
