    Best thing ever! I had to read a few pages of Sleepy Hollow for my College Literature class, I just listened to the whole thing because my teacher is so monotone that I never get anything out of the stories that she reads!

    Best narration by far. Not overdone. Tone is properly captured. I listen to this throughout the year, and it always makes me miss Autumn. Would love to know more about Chip from Tampa!

    Every year in early October I come back to this narration to hear the story of the galloping hessian. Chip, wherever you are, thank you. 🎃 🧡

    I have actually play Sleepy Hollow as a theater once! Me and my theater group made our own version of the story! And I played Ichabod Crane! And the guy who played his/mine rival Brom Bones was a 10 years old little boy! I was 25 years old! It was really fun!

    I love very very much this version by Chip. It is much better than the other two versions. I like his slower, gravelly voice. It is very natural and tuned in to this old classic story.

    Very good story. This book isnt read fast, it's read in the storytelling format. You have both fast and slow in excited and fearful places. And a wistful pace in general overview. He reads it very well.
