Alan Bennett: Doctor Dolittle Stories: Classic readings from the BBC archive
"Alan Bennett reads three enchanting Doctor Dolittle stories Doctor Dolittle has an extraordinary talent – he can talk to the animals! Taught by his parrot, Polynesia, he is soon able to chat to every kind of creature – and his skill leads him into all sorts of adventures. In The Story of Doctor Dolittle, the Doctor and his pets set sail for Africa to save the monkeys – but they face great danger and challenges, including a sinking ship and Barbary pirates... The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle finds Doctor Dolittle on the high seas once again, this time with his young friend Tommy Stubbins. The pair head for Spider Monkey Island, a mysterious place of magic and secrets... Doctor Dolittle’s Circus sees the Doctor in need of money, so he and his Pushmi-Pullyu join the circus. They’re such a hit with the other animals that Doctor Dolittle soon finds himself running the show! Brilliantly read by Alan Bennett, whose delightfully whimsical rendition brings Doctor Dolittle and all his animal friends magically to life, this charming collection of stories will delight listeners young and old."

Winnie-The-Pooh: The Complete BBC Collection: Celebrate 100 Years of Magic in the Hundred Acre Wood
"Alan Bennett reads A.A. Milne's much-loved stories about a small bear and his friends - from Winnie the Pooh, The House at Pooh Corner and A Party for Pooh. 'If you were looking for the distilled essence of pure English cosy nostalgia, this audiobook may well be it... Every child should listen to it.' - The Telegraph What is the connection between a bear of very little brain and a honey pot? Usually it's the very sticky paw of Winnie the Pooh, as he takes a break between adventures for a little something. In these stories, Pooh goes visiting and gets into a tight place, Eeyore loses a tail, Piglet meets a Heffalump, Eeyore has a birthday and gets two presents, and an expedition is mounted to the North Pole! As usual they are accompanied by Kanga, Roo, Rabbit and Owl - to say nothing of Pooh's very clever young human friend, Christopher Robin. With a musical introduction, Alan Bennett gives A.A. Milne's characters the voices you felt they were always meant to have. The stories included here are: - Winnie-the-Pooh Goes Visiting and Gets into a Tight Place - Pooh and Piglet Nearly Catch a Woozle and Eeyore Loses a Tail - Piglet Meets a Heffalump - Eeyore has a birthday and Gets Two Presents - Christopher Robin Leads an Exposition to the North Pole - A House is Built at Pooh Corner for Eeyore - Tigger Comes to the Forest and has Breakfast - A Search is Organdized and Piglet Nearly Meets the Heffalump Again - Pooh Invents a New Game and Eeyore Joins In - Piglet Does a Very Grand Thing and Owl Moves House - Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest - Piglet is Entirely Surrounded by Water - Christoper Robin Gives Pooh a Party - Tiggers Don't Climb Trees - Rabbit has a Busy Day - Tigger is Unbounced ©2017 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2017 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd"
