Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Lisa Nasson’s narration is both gentle and powerful, perfectly complementing Margaret-Fenton’s narrative. Her voice conveys the raw emotions of young Margaret-Olemaun’s experiences, especially during her confrontations with school bullies. The production quality is top-notch, with clear audio that keeps listeners fully engaged throughout the 107 minutes. While the story may be heavy at times, Nasson’s delivery ensures it remains accessible and moving. The pacing is well-balanced, allowing moments of reflection to resonate before diving back into the narrative's intensity. A few scenes could have benefited from more detailed description, but overall, Fatty Legs offers a poignant and educational listening experience.
