Editorial reviews

This installment of iMindsJNR delivers compact lessons that engage as much as stories. As each diverse topic is explored in Smarty, Volume 2, young listeners are intellectually emboldened and made more knowledgeable about photography, photosynthesis, the Civil War, and other subjects. Small audio details like a meow when Thomas Edison is described as rubbing two cats together to cause a spark (don't try this at home) enliven the broadcast and help gear the content toward kids. Australian actress Leah Vandenberg feeds a listener's curiosity while also sounding intellectually curious herself. Her warm and cheerful voice is emotionally stimulating without compromising the authority of the content.

Critic Reviews

"I'm learning all sorts of stuff about stuff I didn't even know I didn't know. And it sticks. In a nutshell: wonderful." (Jonathon Margolis, Financial Times)
