Well read but different stories than listed

I essentially got this for the fairy tales: Little Red, Goldilocks, Rumpelstiltskin and 3 Billy goats, as they are stories that my daughter enjoys. Bonus that they’re read by the marvellous Victoria Wood, and bonus that they are some other great stories on the list.

I was pretty annoyed to find out that Goldilocks and Red Riding Hood don’t actually feature. Instead there are two chapters read by David Walliams, something by Dr Seuss I think.

So great music and narration, but incorrectly listed by audible!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
