Listen to a selection from the recording      

For the first time, four of Rafe’s acclaimed children’s books, as actually told by him, are available on one tape. This audio cassette which is a Parent’s Choice Gold Award-winner, features Rafe’s original, oral versions of The Rough-Face Girl, Foolish Rabbit’s Big Mistake, The Boy Who Lived with the Seals, and The Boy Who Loved Mammoths.

Dramatic, lively, and uniquely different from his books, these four stories are brought to life with all the richness of voice and expression for which Rafe’s storytelling is known. “The four stories on this tape,” Rafe explains, “are the way I actually tell them today. I have wanted to share these performances with my many readers for some time. People who have heard me tell these stories have been amazed to discover how different the original, oral, and printed versions really are. Now, at last, here they are for you to enjoy.”
