For those of you who like audiobooks, especially of Lewis Carroll’s works, you would do well to look at www.oxfordstorypods.com. Here, you will find all the information about Alice in Wonderland & Nonsense Verse and Prose - an unabridged recording of Alice's Adventures which is not aimed solely at little children. Produced by two Lewis Carroll fans living in Oxford, England, with humorous narration provided by Oxford actors and a bonus of Carroll's poems and lesser known prose, this CD stands apart from other Alice audiobooks, receiving warm praise from The Times' reviewer and the President of LCSNA. Best of all is the 5-star rating from the Amazon Reviewer who writes: For me, the only thing that stops this CD from being perfect is that it doesn't include what most right-minded scholars, philosophers, and Good Sorts must surely regard as the finest, funniest, most moving and most profound poem in the English language (I refer, of course, to The Hunting of the Snark.)
You can buy the MP3 CD from Amazon or www.oxfordstorypods.com where a download is available for only £4.95.

Que? Don't understand reference to 'masked Amazon'.
Bill Moulford does a great job as the Cheshire Cat in this audiobook. I reckon any cool cat would want to listen to an audiobook in which a feline has a star part. My cat, though, would probably identify more with Dinah - being female and only given to meows!
Hope you, too, enjoy the audio.

Thanks for reminding me about this. I saw it quite a while ago and had thought about picking it up, then failed to do so and quite forgot about it!
