Why listen to Cally and Jimmy?

Here is the detail that lifts this audiobook: Zoe Antoniades narrates her own story. When an author reads her own characters, children pick up on the ownership in the voice, and the twins arrive exactly as their creator hears them.The 1 hour and 56 minute runtime is a genuine advantage for family listening. It fits a long car journey, a rainy Saturday or a week of bedtimes in short chapters, and it will not defeat a young listener’s attention span.Begin with this first book and treat it as a trial run: if the giggles come, you have found a series to grow with. Ideal for primary-age children, reluctant readers and parents who enjoy listening along.

Clara’s verdict

Clara Whitmore

4.5/5

A clean 5.0 average is something I almost never encounter, and one built on 58 ratings rather than five made me sit up. Having listened, I understand it: children’s audio succeeds on energy and sincerity, and Zoe Antoniades supplies both, reading her own twins with obvious affection. At under two hours it cannot be judged against sprawling family sagas, so I am scoring it for what it sets out to do, which it does almost perfectly. My only wish is that there were more of it to hand to eager young listeners.
