Summary

There is no official, unabridged audiobook found for Maurice Sendak's "One Was Johnny" on major retail platforms like Audible, Google Play Books, or Apple Books. However, several alternative audio formats exist. The story is included in an animated DVD collection of 'The Nutshell Library' where the reading is sung to music composed by Carole King. Furthermore, Peter Schickele narrated a version of the story (also part of a collection), but this is also not available as a standalone, official audiobook for purchase. Various informal audio performances, such as read-alouds and song versions, are available on platforms like YouTube, but these do not meet the criteria for an official retail audiobook.
