The Cinnamon Bear: The Complete Series (Hollywood 360 - Classic Radio Collection)(Audio Theater) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
All 26 radio episodes of The Cinnamon Bear - the delightful holiday adventure for the whole family! The Cinnamon Bear is arguably the best holiday series ever developed for radio. Now, in collaboration with the Heisch estate, we bring you all twenty-six episodes of The Cinnamon Bear, recorded directly from the original masters for superb sound quality. First heard in 1937, this wonderful Christmas fantasy adventure was created and written by Glanville Heisch for children of all ages. It all starts with twins Judy and Jimmy Barton just before Christmas. Someone - or something - has taken the ''Silver Star'' for the top of their Christmas tree. The very Irish teddy bear, Paddy O'Cinnamon, comes to their rescue and tells them that the Crazy Quilt Dragon has taken the star to Maybeland. The three venture off to find the Silver Star and come face-to-face with many fantastical characters in Maybeland, including a dragon, a giant, a witch, a whale, a queen, a rhyming rabbit, a magician, cowboys, Indians, and even pirates. The adventure concludes with a trip to the North Pole to meet Santa Claus himself! Many well-known radio actors lent their voices to this popular series, including Howard McNear, Gale Gordon, Verna Felton, Frank Nelson, Elliott Lewis, Lou Merrill, and Joseph Kearns. Judy Barton was played by Barbara Jean Wong, Jimmy Barton by Tommy Carr, and Paddy O'Cinnamon by Buddy Duncan.

I just finished listening to this, and it brought back memories from my childhood when I eagerly tuned in each day for the 15-minute episode that always ended in a cliff-hanger. The series ended just before Christmas. Listening to it as an adult surprised me that it was very cleverly written and performed. I plan to pass it on to my neighbor's young children before Christmas next year.
I ordered this as a present for my dad last Christmas. I remember listening to The Cinnamon Bear on Old Time Radio out of Chicago when going on drives with my daddy as a little girl. Unfortunately, the radio program is no longer around and hasn't been for some time. But the memories are still there. Christmas seemed to come too quickly this year, so my children and I didn't get to go listen to it before Christmas, but Dad listened to it with the rest of the family. We'll make sure to do so while they are on break. Such a lovely, exciting story, that really gets the imagination going for young and old alike.
This is an excellent classic radio drama. Our kids loved listening to this at bedtime each night. They became quick fans of the Cinnamon Bear and every teddy they saw was renamed Cinnamon. This was their first introduction to dramatized episodic story telling and they love the genre now. This will now be one of our annual holiday traditions from Thanksgiving to Christmas.
The perfect Christmas gift! It brings me back to Christmas time where my mother would play this story every year leading up to Christmas time. Normally you could only find the story on cassette so I was extremely excited to see it on cd. Definitely recommend to get you and your family into Christmas spirit.
A great series to help young kids count down to holiday morning. This was a radio program recorded back in the 1930s and its in 30 segments that were designed to be run from the day after thanksgiving until Christmas eve. The story is about a bunch of kids hunting down the star to their tree with the help of a little bear named the Cinnamon Bear. All the adventures they get into while in a land like Imagination Land. There is some singing and always plenty of action. Also to help keep kids hook the segments always end on a cliff-hanger that can lead to the next segment. The only downsize to these is that about 10 minutes (5 at the start and 5 at the end) which are eaten up by a musical intro. So if you are listening to this; then skipping ahead is important to do otherwise its a little annoying to sit through every time if you are a kid, but would be good if you are listening to this with your kids to help them get settled down.
