Do you need to listen to each story in order?

        Listen in any order. Each story is a stand-alone experience.

What stories are appropriate for what ages?

• 4 - 11 years old: The Growler Tapes (Classic Series)
• 6 - 12 years old: Growler Radio

What's the difference between The Growler Tapes (Classic Series) and Growler Radio?

        Both series feature sophisticated storytelling & sound production.  The Growler Tapes (Classic Series) is linear - drama from beginning to end. Growler Radio presents drama interspersed with short programs which provide other perspectives on the unfolding mystery.

Producer's note:  Growler Radio was created over an 8 year perod and the series has gradually grown in sophistication as the two lead children have aged.   This helps explain the wide disparity in recommended ages by reviewers.
