    What to expect: Fantasy, Magical Powers, Mystery

    George Robert Minkoff’s charming and imaginative story, Tickle Plenty and the Bubblegum Tree, follows the adventures of a bubbly young girl named Tickle, and her many companions. The story follows the characters through the Rainbow Forest to the Ice Cream Volcano, in pursuit of a magical decree. Tickle meets and encounters plenty of characters with eccentric personalities, reminiscent of events that take place in the classic Alice in Wonderlandin which the characters have plenty of random and woolly conversations that intrigue young readers—scrumptious food and enchanting scenery play a large part.

    While familiar, Minkoff has created a unique world that kids will surely appreciate. The whimsical fantasy realm he has created, combined with its superb narration by AudioFile Earphones Award-winner Alison Larkin, gives off a nostalgic feeling—making it enjoyable for adults, too. The pacing, individual accents for each character, and Larkin’s intonation are absolutely marvelous!

    Original, poetic, and creative—a talking swing hangs from a chocolate chip celling, bubblegum can be picked from a tree, a lemonade river flows through the Rainbow Forest—Tickle Plenty and the Bubblegum Tree makes for a wonderful audio experience that will readily fill up the time on a road trip or provide companionship during some quiet time. Minkoff’s ending will leave listeners ready to jump into Tickle Plenty and the Lollipop Garden and Tickle Plenty and the Kingdom of the Clouds, also read by Alison Larkin.
