(St. Clare Audio, March 15, 2016)
4 Audio CD's - 4 Hours and 5 Minutes. The Story of the Treasure Seekers tells of the entertaining adventures and frequent mishaps of the six Bastable children, Dora, Oswald, Dicky, Alice, Noel, and Horace Octavius (H. O.) and their attempts to assist their widowed father and "restore the fortunes of their fallen house" . The children are delightfully imaginative, well-read, well-spoken, thoughtful under the natural childish self-centeredness, and self-sufficient. There is an innocence and genuine decency to their interactions, and a true sibling comradery (they unequivocally accept and allow for each other's differences/quirks), that is missing in our society and literature so much today. The various schemes the children try are clever, touching, and funny, and often end in mishap. Readers will laugh along at the humorous events, cry along at the sad moments, and enjoy the wholesome goodness of a classic written in a more genteel era. Our CDs are packaged in premium DVD cases with CD labeling printed right on the CD in full color. We do not use paper stick-on labels, these tend to peel off over time and can really jam up car CD players and computers. We chose to use DVD cases for our CD sets, as we have found they hold up better in shipping and in regular usage than the typical CD jewel case. Please note: All recordings we offer on CD are produced with recordings from Librivox, public domain works recorded by volunteers. We at St. Clare Audio would like to thank the volunteers for their gift of offering their work to the public domain. St. Clare Audio's niche is providing them in ready-to-purchase CD sets, for those who cannot download, or have not the desire or time to do so, as well as the benefit of a nice case and professionally produced CDs. The Story of the Treasure Seekers Audiobook is read by Karen Savage.
