This is the third selection of James Herriot's stories illustrated by Lesley Holmes, and these beautiful illustrations help the reader to escape even deeper into the world of James Herriot and his beloved Dales. The stories include tales of cows and dogs including Tricki Woo, horses, goats and orphaned lambs, and all told in the wonderful writing style that has made James Herriot a household name.

Review of "James Herriot's animal stories" on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

It was a fun listen. I was first introduced to James Heriot when reading a short excerpt with an 8th grade class. I enjoyed his storytelling.

The audio is almost better than reading since the reader does the accents, I assume, correctly. There is a bit of translation for the listener, and some things I plain did not catch.

A good, light-hearted listen.
