About this listen

Clive King's wonderful classic, Stig of the Dump, is now available to download, complete and unabridged and read by the brilliant Tony Robinson.

Barney is a solitary little boy, given to wandering off by himself. One day he is lying on the edge of a disused chalk-pit when it gives way and he lands in a sort of cave. Here he meets 'somebody with a lot of shaggy hair and two bright black eyes' wearing a rabbit skin and speaking in grunts. He names him Stig. Of course nobody believes Barney when he tells his family all about Stig, but for Barney cave-man Stig is totally real. They become great friends, learning each other's ways and embarking on a series of unforgettable adventures.

Heard this read on TV almost 65 years ago. Tony Robinson was a wonderful reader. Not everyone’s choice but it took m3 back to my childhood.

Held kids in rapt attention for duration. No arguments either over the choice of this. Just get it!

I am now a State Pensioner reading and listening to books that should have been read many years back in my youth. S of the D was on my wish list and have not been disappointed. Barny's adventures with Stig took me back to my youth and into the Dump. This will now be recommended to my Grand Children and to be read before getting too old. That said, we are never too old.

Sixty Years to get round to read it.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Its a great story for kids but also for adults wanting some nostalgia

Have you listened to any of Tony Robinson’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Tho I do like Tony, his work and the way he presented this book, the only negative thing I would say is that he made the characters sound a lot younger than they actually were.

Any additional comments?

Loved the book. I know its a kids book but it took me back to the days of my childhood.
Thoroughly enjoyable and ideal for kids (I am a kid a heart!)

Great blast from the past!
