Reviews:"Osborne's collection of stories about the super-sized heroes
and heroines peopling the American pantheon is well served by this lively narration.
The pacing perfectly captures the wild action of the rapscallions of these
adventures - each trying to outdo the other. Bucolic harmonica music supplies
the perfect historical note to this surefire family pleaser."
-Capital
Choices 2002 (Noteworthy Books for Children) "Snively reenacts
this collection of folk stories with a laid-back style and some funny rustic accents."
-Booklist
"With vocal agility, narrator Snively creates each of these billboard-sized
heroes and heroines so that we hear, beneath their braggadocio, the thumping
of their human hearts. His pacing, too, is perfect for the roller-coaster
action. Brief snippets of harmonica music create a rustic backdrop that
helps to anchor the whole production. This is an all-American romp that
will have whole families listening and laughing together."
-The Horn Book Magazine "Narrator Scott Snively uses a matter-of-fact
voice to present the historical information and a very expressive voice for the
stories - his different accents are appropriate and often amusing. A good choice
for school and public libraries."
