I know for a fact that Samuel L. Jackson has narrated the famous illustrated version of it. I wanna say it's a Reading Rainbow thing. It's available on United Streaming, but I think you have to have a membership to view it. It's out there though, and he does a good job with it. The famous version of it won the Coretta Scott King award (I think, lol). If not that one, then it won the Caldecott. It's watercolors and has all sorts of great literary devices you could pick apart.
