Review
I apologise right now. For those new to the audiobook experience, I am afraid that this is precisely the kind of story that will get you hopelessly addicted. Hook, line and sinker. ...David Tennant is simply perfect at conveying jamie's innocence, sadness and joy.... And in Annabel Pitcher, it seems we have a major new literary talent. (DVDfever.co.uk )

quite simply, stunning ... One of the most compelling listens ever, beautifully read by David Tennant, who said: "I couldn't put this down, I had to record the book." With music by Peter Rinne, who also produces. Meant for children of 10 and over this is one any adult will love and weep over too. (DAILY EXPRESS )

David Tennant felt he had to record this book, and no wonder - it's brilliant for both adults and older children ... Intensely moving, starkly real and ultimately heartening. (OBSERVER )

It's instantly clear why David Tennant made to time to record Annabel Pitcher's debut ... You can hear Tennant's respect for Pitcher's writing, which covney's a boy's budding emotional antennae and irreductible vivacity in ever sentence. (TIME OUT )

a funny, sad, remarkably uplifting story and David Tennant reads it superbly. (INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY )

"David Tennant's narration of the audio was fantastic ... [he] added a warmth and humour to the text. He brought the story to life and I frequently found myself unable to turn the audio off, listening to the end of a section in the car after I'd reached my destination ... [My Sister Lives on the Mantelpiece] has just become my favourite single narrator audio book of all time' (FARM LANE BOOKS )
