The Princess and the Wizard
Om denne lydbog
A magical fairytale adventure, perfect for listening to at home, in the car, at bedtime – or any time at all!
"The princess may try seven times to escape
By changing her colour and changing her shape."
But each time Princess Eliza changes – into a blue fish, a yellow chick, a red fox or a black cat – the wicked wizard finds her and sets her another horrible task. Will this plucky princess be able to outwit him and escape back to the palace in time to cut her birthday cake?
The Princess and the Wizard is a magical adventure from the stellar picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks, creators of What the Ladybird Heard. It is read aloud by award-winning actress, Imelda Staunton, and also includes a read-along version of the story.
