Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'Old Christmas' narrated by Flo Gibson is like being invited into a cozy parlor by a skilled storyteller. Gibson's narration is a treat, her voice perfectly capturing the wit and warmth of Irving's writing. She masterfully differentiates characters, making each voice distinct and engaging. The pacing is spot-on, allowing the story's charm to unfold naturally. However, I found the lack of sound effects or music a bit disappointing, as they could have enhanced the immersive experience. Despite this, Irving's story is the star, and Gibson's narration does it justice. If you're looking for a classic, heartwarming Christmas listen, this audiobook is a must.
