About the Author:

Antonia Barber is a contributor for Kingfisher titles including: 'Tales from the Ballet'

From AudioFile:

Reading the concise storylines of many of the great ballets, Gordon emphasizes their magic, drama and emotion. Speaking with a clear British accent, she enlivens all parts and enhances the excitement, sadness and occasional humor. Gordon captures the intensity of each unique situation, giving every character individuality and every event importance. Her narration moves smoothly, providing a steady pace and an easy listening atmosphere, important for children who may be hearing these stories for the first time. P.A.J.
