![]() As an adult, I still have my childhood compendium of fairytales and I read them in times when I need to feel comforted, so to find an adult book along the same lines is refreshing. Each was a morality tale, as was the whole book (see below for more on this aspect), and each raised the suspicions of this reader. I adored the inclusion of folk and fairy tales throughout the story. I just cannot praise, or thank Juliet Stevenson enough for narrating The Lollipop Shoes, in unabridged format at that. Ms Steveson made it easy for me to determine to whom a particular chapter related in just the first few words her characterisation of each individual voice so skillfully personified. ![]() The story is told through three characters: Vianne, Anouk and Zozie. ![]() Ms Steveson's performance of this story was superb and I will actively seek out other books she has chosen to narrate. ![]() Firstly, I liked the narration by Juliet Stevenson as it was clear, a great actress, and when voicing the male characters, I actually thought a male actor had been employed. ![]() I adored Chocolat by the same author it was a dose of magical realism, romance and embracing life. ![]()
