## Description

Product Description

Review: Great Addition - This is a great addition to my daughter’s Tonie collection. First the story is read out, then the story is read with a musical sound to tell children when to turn the page if they are following the story using a book. Then a song ! The Giant Story follows using the same pattern - story, follow along and a song. Great to have a story!
Review: Wonderful Audio Stories, Perfect for Our Son - This Julia Donaldson Tonies set featuring The Snail and the Whale and The Smartest Giant in Town is fantastic. Our autistic son really enjoys listening to these stories, and having the physical books to follow along with makes the experience even better for him. The audio narration is clear and engaging, capturing the charm of Julia Donaldson’s storytelling perfectly. It’s a great way to encourage listening skills and imagination. The Toniebox compatibility makes it very easy for kids to use independently, which is a big plus for us. Highly recommend for families looking for interactive, inclusive storytelling options that can support children with special needs.
