My son and his girlfriend were mesmerized. He said, 'I haven't been told a story since you used to tuck me in.' A whole new generation of listeners. Bravo." - Carol McPhee
"I enjoyed the entire experience. The stories were, each one equally, poignant and I both laughed and cried. I could not pick a favourite if required to." - Ginny Butler
