Neil Gaiman Audio Collection

I began to read Neil Gaiman when I collected his Sandman series. But since then, he has become an extremely prolific author for both children and adults. However, I had never read any of his children's stories. I had this in mind when I picked up a copy of The Neil Gaiman Audio Collection. The collection contained a few of his short stories for children, some poetry and even an interview that his daughter conducted as a bonus on the CD. The stories were dark and cute, much like Lemony Snicket or Sachar's Sideways Stories from Wayside School. My favorite was the "The Wolves in the Walls", but the entire CD was really good and worth the hour investment of your time. You can order a copy of this at the library, and listen to it in the car on the way home!
