Peter Hawkins
These two Spot cassettes have turn-over tones so children can follow the words or the very young can follow the story by the pictures. The book is a 30-page Tempo paperback full of bold, animated pictures with extended text adapted from the original Heinemann book. The stories are simple and enlivened with sound effects, like the splashing water for Spot's wet picnic. Spot's mum makes the animals an indoor picnic to make up for the soggy sandwiches and Spot's hospital visit turns into a funny afternoon.
