Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Nestled in the Glen, 'The Ogress and the Orphans' thrives under Kelly Barnhill's expert narration. The story unfolds with a gentle yet engaging pace that allows listeners to fully immerse themselves in the magical world of Stone. The protagonist’s journey from fear to acceptance is beautifully conveyed, making for a profoundly moving experience. However, some sections feel slightly slow, which might challenge younger listeners. Still, the audiobook’s overall emotional depth and its celebration of community more than make up for these minor pacing issues.
