|a New York : |b Bloomsbury Books for Young Readers, |c 2010. It's a fun, lighthearted, yet empowering book, fun for all ages.|a DLC |b eng |c DLC |d IG# |d BEL |d GO3 |d SINLB |d EHH |d HFU Some fairy tales make cameo appearances (the 3 bears in a previous book) others are main characters (Snow White in this book). If you're listening to book 3 you're probably already familiar with the series, but in case you landed on the book 3 page first, using the premise that Sleeping Beauty's younger sister (The Wide Awake Princess) is the one to make things happen so that her sister would be woken up before their kingdom falls apart, Princess Annie is a dynamic go getter who makes things happens, while fairy tales happen all around her. That said, if it's the end of a chapter, we're okay with not resetting the sleep timer. We listen at bedtime, and I find myself saying "okay, just one more section" far too often. Bauer's voice is pleasant to listen to (pitch and timbre) and she's a good narrator, even when there's no dialogue her narration is engaging. Princess Annie and Prince Liam sound like themselves to us at this point, their characterization is solid. Her character voices don't sound like they're being voiced by different performers, but when someone is talking, you have a clear idea who it is from the pitch and intonation of Ms. My choosy listener was unenthused when I told her we were going to listen to at least one full chapter before she could axe this series, and by then we were both hooked. Her favorite series is narrated by two performers, and she refuses to listen to one of them. We started our Audible journey with a narrator who set the bar really, really, *really* high.
Just one?!? (she packs a lot of energy into her wails considering it's bedtime) She sighs.
