Book cover: “A Book for Kids” by C.J. Dennis (Angus & Robertson, 1921); audiobook read by Colin Friels (ABC Audio, 2016)
Supposedly unabridged, this audiobook in fact omits the stories, leaving only Dennis’s verse—short, rather dated bush ballads, their rhyme too simple for adults, the language too sophisticated for children. Colin Friels revisits his Play School days but fights a losing battle. #CJDennis #ColinFriels
