A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood.
A fox saw the mouse and the mouse looked good.
Walk further into the deep dark wood, and discover what happens when a quick-witted mouse comes face to face with an owl, a snake...and a hungry Gruffalo!

Superb
Excellent story and brilliant narrating. My 4 yr grandson and I listen to this book repeatedly every time we’re in the car. My grandson recites along with sheer delight.

A wonderful bedtime story
the story follows a little mouse as he makes his way through the deep dark wood only to find his imaginary creature is really alive.
the unabridged version however does have some different words to the book. however they are quite minor and do not take away from the book

Brilliant childrens title
This is a great title for the kids to listen to, the narration is outstanding and the Gruffalo song at the end makes it a good listen to/sing along for the kids in the car.

A classic
We had this on cd and my child is obsessed so we had to buy it so we could listen in other places besides the car! It’s a good length and a fun story for adults and kids alike
