Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Cynthia Nixon's performance as Penny is simply enchanting; her soft tone and expressive delivery breathe life into Henkes' vivid descriptions. As Penny receives a surprise from Gram and navigates her curiosity, Nixon’s narration never wavers in its sincerity or depth. The pacing is perfect for an audiobook—neither too rushed nor drawn out—allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the story without feeling overwhelmed. However, while the narrative excels in character development, some of the environmental sound effects could be more robust to enhance the immersive experience further.
