Product Description
The adventures of Arthur and the gang are brought to life by your favorite celebrities in a Enhanced Compact Disc featuring stories, songs, pictures, games and educational materials for children and parents alike to enjoy. Celebrity readers Clay Aiken, Tom Arnold, Kevin Bacon, Marc Brown (author), Daisy Fuentes, Marcia Gay Harden, Cheri Oteri, Jeff Probst and Kelly Ripa deliver lively and amusing performances to accompany Ziggy Marley s catchy Arthur theme song. With fun characters, warm and whimsical stories and a penchant for silliness over preachiness, each of Arthur s adventures brings answers and perspectives to the issues, problems and everyday tumult that make up life for young children. A majority of the proceeds from this first installment of the Stories for Heroes Series benefit three wonderful children s charities: the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF), National Education Association Health Information Network (NEA HIN) and The Bubel/Aiken Foundation (TBAF).

Great!!!! June 5, 2006

I bought this because I am a fan of Clay Aiken. He is so good at reading stories and does a great job of changing his voice to suit the various characters.
 Nice for the car September 14, 2005

We gave this CD to our daughter for her birthday as she recently has started listening to audiobooks and has enjoyed Arthur for awhile. This has been very nice to listen to in the car, and we were pleased to see that some of the profits go to a good cause. The only glitch is that many of the Arthur stories rely on the talented artistry of Marc Brown to convey the scene. Without the book directly in front of the child, parents really may need to explain what was visually shown by Marc Brown. Ex: In Arthur's Tooth, Arthur loses his first tooth because he is shoved by Francine. This is shown in the book, but never said in the story. My daughter wondered why Arthur was grateful to be pushed roughly. Aside from this, it has been great fun.

This is a fantastic choice for children who love Arthur. The stories are so well read by the celebrities that they really capture my son's attention (he's almost 3), and mine too as I listened to some of my favorite stars (Kelly Ripa). I usually played this in his room when he was having quiet time/nap time. He would be able to play quietly because he was listening to the stories, which are his favorite anyway.
Really Enjoyable August 3, 2004

My kids love Arthur and this product is a nice treat! Each of the celebrities brought their own unique personality to the Arthur stories and make the entire Audiobook really enjoyable. It's also nice to see such wonderful celebrities take time out to record stories for charity.
Aside from the feel good factor, this is a really fun product that includes some of my favorite Arthur stories, pictures from his beloved books, the catchy Ziggy Marley theme song and a host of interactive games to keep the kids occupied. Don't be fooled! There's a lot on this little CD!
I highly recommend it.
