Audio Reviews:
"Poetry always comes to life when it is spoken and here the perfect
blending of voices and words becomes a song to the ears... a treat for all ages."

Review - KLIATT
"Melissa Hughes and Scott Snively and
supporting young voices transport the listener to Fleischman's world of insects
and birds. The play between multiple voices brings natural moments into memorable
focus...listen and enjoy—this recording is an audio treat!"

"This audio is magical.
The duets with narrators Melissa Hughes and Scott Snively are industrious and
charged with life."
- Bennet Pomerantz, audiobookcafe.com
"Hughes
and Snively, with some assistance from several other performers, rise to the occasion,
giving Fleischman's words the cheerful musicality the author intended. The result
is verse that has an appealing theatrical quality. The cast skillfully energizes
Fleischman's work."

a soaring, energetic musicality into his writing. Both of his books of Poems
for Two Voices make for irresistable listening. Whether funny, sad, boisterous
or serene, each poem in this recording is a virtuoso performance - skillfully
illuminating a unique personality from the natural world.
