Our family listened to this production on a series of short road trips. The classic story is amazing and the production quality very good. We love the radio theatre generated by Focus on the Family and will continue to purchase these high quality, family oriented productions.
This is an excellent production. My 6 year old listened to it so much that I think the whole family has it memorized. Then she took a break from it and I started missing Martha Sowerby and others. I also just ordered one for a friend's daughter. I completely recommend it.
My daughter of 8 loved this audiobook. She was so into the story and hung onto every word. I would recommend, as it is challenging to find appropriate audio books for her age. I would say from 8 to 13 years.
Great product, the audio story is interesting, and follows the book well. My younger siblings listen to it often, and even I enjoy it.
We love Focus on the Family Radio Theater! They did a wonderful job with the Secret Garden, its very entertaining. We listen to these on long car rides and even on shorter car rides. Our kids love radio theater. We have the Chronicles of Narnia and have listened to the stories too many times to count. Secret Garden was a lot of fun to listen to and I think we may have discovered a new favorite!
I enjoyed it a whole ton because it is very mysterious and exciting and full of fun. I liked the girl and I like the crippled boy who the girl found who was a secret. And I liked the secret garden that the girl found.
Radio Theatre has done a lovely job of dramatizing a well-loved story. It is a faithful, if not exact, telling of the book. The characters develop, though not as much as in the book. It was an enjoyable 2 hours-ish of listening. You can listen to the CD without knowing the story and enjoy it completely.
This is our family favorite. A great way to spend 2 hours while traveling on the road together. Pleasing for adults and small children. Great companion to Silas Marner as well. The FOTF Radio dramas are masterfully produced, and they deftly and quietly bring out Christian themes such as the transforming power of love that you don't get in school. We listen to them over and over again in the car.
