ARNIE THE DOUGHNUT

If ever there were an author whose work begs to be fully voiced, it is Laurie Keller’s. There is no better way to follow the story line and the myriad of related scenes that adorn each page than by hearing differentiated voices. Michael McKean is superb at giving voice to Arnie and to each supporting character. His presentation gives the story its due while underscoring the humor of the total package. The accompanying sound effects and music complement perfectly as listeners learn how doughnuts are made--from a doughnut’s point of view. Hear Arnie and Mr. Bing discuss uses for a doughnut and find out how Arnie goes to the dogs. A.R.
