Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Neil Patrick Harris brings an infectious charm to Ribsy, infusing the audiobook with his natural wit and comedic timing. His performance elevates Cleary’s already delightful writing, turning each anecdote into a joyous experience. The story is rich in character development, particularly through Henry's relationship with Ribsy, which feels both genuine and endearing. However, at times the pacing can feel rushed, potentially leaving some plot points feeling underdeveloped. Despite this minor critique, the overall narrative is a delightful journey that showcases Cleary’s masterful storytelling combined with Harris’ engaging narration.
