Reviews

"I think the Eardrops stories are a wonderful resource for young children and would be helpful to encourage children's listening skills and language development. They are fun and engaging, with a great variety of different sounds and corresponding vocabulary presented. These are the kind of stories children would listen to over and over again. They make learning to listen fun!" Dr Jayne Newbury, Co-Director, Child Language Centre, University of Canterbury
