Kelsey Grammer is a delight listening to, as is Kate Beckinsale.

Thank you, Apple.

I hope Apple will soon release a book read by U2 and send it automatically to every device!

But seriously, I love this. I downloaded them all. Great narration. I love audiobooks in general. Audiobooks narrated by top actors are the best.

Do you also get the Winnie the Pooh one? That's the only one I'm missing and it seems that this one is only available through the US store - so not generally available in Germany.
Same here in Norway - restrictive Disney copyright perhaps? A bit of a shame as my daughter may have liked it.
