Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian audiobook

Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian

Narnia has been at peace since Peter, Lucy, Susan and Edmund helped rid the kingdom of the evil White Witch. But now the children have returned to their own world, and in their absence a dark presence rules the once harmonious land.

Wicked King Miraz has imposed a pernicious new order of persecution and imprisonment, but the King's nephew and rightful heir, young Prince Caspian, realizing the evil of his uncle's regime, vows to revive Narnia's glorious past. Fearing for his life, he is forced to flee and calls on the four children, the magic of the mighty lion Aslan, and an army of fauns, dwarfs and woodland spirits to help him in his seemingly impossible task.

The seven titles in The Chronicles of Narnia, in order, are as follows: The Magician's Nephew; The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; The Horse and His Boy; Prince Caspian; The Voyage of the Dawn Treader; The Silver Chair and The Last Battle.

Wolf Brother audiobook

Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #1: Wolf Brother

Six Thousand Years Ago. Evil Stalks the land. Only twelve-year-old Torak and his wolf-cub companion can defeat it. Their journey together takes them through deep forests, across giant glaciers, and into dangers they never imagined.

In this page-turning, original, and spectacularly told adventure story, Torak and Wolf are joined by an incredible cast of characters as they battle to save their world, in this first book in The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness.

Since the age of ten, Michelle Paver has dreamed about running with the wild wolves in the prehistoric forest. Writing The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series has been a way for her to fulfill this dream. To research Wolf Brother, Michelle traveled through the forests of northern Finland and Lapland; slept on reindeer skins; ate lichens, forest berries, and pine resin (Stone Age chewing gum); and peered into the mouth of a very large brown bear. Born in Malawi, she moved to England as a young girl. She is the author of several adult novels, and this is her first children's book.

Ian McKellen is internationally renowned for his distinguished work on the stage and screen over four decades. He has won over 40 acting awards. He plays Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings and Magneto in the X-Men films. Throughout his career, he has enjoyed working regularly for radio. His solo reading of The Odyssey for Penguin Books won an Audie in 1997.

The Christmas Doll audiobook

Christmas Doll, The

.a magical story, expertly incorporating a dash of Dickens with extensive historical research in the early Victorian era. A dollightful surprise for Santa to tuck under the Christmas tree, perhaps in the arms of an old-fashioned doll.Kirkus Reviews

Two young orphans, Lucy Wolcott and her little sister Glory, have no one in the world but each other. Every day, they labor from dawn to dusk in the bleak, cold shelter of a public workhouse in old London Town where there is little to eat and the nights are cold and damp. The only light in their lives comes from the stories that Lucy invents, stories about a family she barely remembers and a doll named Morning Glory, who, Lucy promises, is destined to return to them some day.

Then one day, Lucy finds an old, discarded doll, which Glory is certain is the long-lost Morning Glory. Morning Glory is no ordinary doll, however, and how she leads the girls to the most surprising turns of fortune makes for a heartwarming story that brims with love, hope, and the truest spirit of Christmas.

Elvira Woodruff is the author of many popular novels. Her books have won numerous awards and honors. The hundreds of letters from children that she receives each year keep her excited about writing. She lives in Martin's Creek, Pennsylvania, where she keeps a garden that is filled with morning glories.

The Children's Homer audiobook

Children's Homer, The

"Published in 1918, Colum's stirring telling of the Greek epics is still unequaled as an
introduction to the classic myths for young readers."Publishers Weekly

Padraic Colum's classic retelling combines the immortal stories from Homer's Iliad and
Odyssey into one glorious saga of heroism and magical adventure. Come voyage to ancient
Greece with Achilles who, guided by the gods, seeks vengeance on the Trojans. And follow Odysseus
on his perilous journeythrough the land of the Cyclopes, past Circe the Enchantress, the terrible
Charybdis, and the six-headed serpent Scylla.

PADRIAC COLUM (1881-1972) was born in Longford, Ireland. He was a poet, playwright, and author who was a major leader of the Irish Renaissance and friend to both Joyce and Yeats. Well versed in the old Gaelic myths as well as those of other cultures, he wrote a number of books for children that retell these tales.

Earphones Awards recipient Robert Whitfield was born in England and worked for the BBC for ten years as a radio news announcer and also worked as a narrator for the Royal National Institute for the Blind in London. In addition to narrating for Blackstone Audiobooks, he involves himself in numerous stage-acting projects in the United States and Europe.
