I think it’s be cleaned up from a lot of the gore for modern day children and I remember that the biggest dog in those days had eyes as big as windmills. It was well read by the brilliant Stephen Mangan. Great value as it was free to download. Looking forward to playing it to my new granddaughter when she’s a little older

Not quite as I remembered from when I read it as a child but still very good indeed
