  • Beauty and the Beast | Fairy Tale Friday

    Beauty and the Beast | Fairy Tale Friday
    Mar 3 2023
    It's that time again - it's Fairy Tale Friday. This month I read Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve's original version of Beauty and the Beast. It's quite a far cry from the Disney version we all know and love, but very interesting nonetheless! Just don't expect any singing candlesticks...

  • Hansel and Gretel | Fairy Tale Friday

    Hansel and Gretel | Fairy Tale Friday
    Nov 4 2022
    Introducing a new regular bonus episode... The first Friday of the month is #FairyTaleFriday! I'll be reading original versions of the fairy tales we all think we know... For this first one, I've chosen Hansel and Gretel, as told by the Brothers Grimm, and translated by Lucy Crane. I thought it was appropriately creepy since we're still in Halloween week!

  • Peter Pan and Wendy | Part 4 (Ch 14-17) (SAMPLE)

    Peter Pan and Wendy | Part 4 (Ch 14-17) (SAMPLE)
    Oct 24 2022
    FULL AUDIOBOOK NOW AVAILABLE:
    https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/willowaudiobooks
    The following is a sample from Episode 4 (the final part) of Peter Pan & Wendy. In order to gain access to the full episode, please visit the link above and make a donation to Great Ormond Street Hospital.
    You will then be emailed a download link and access code.
    In 1929, JM Barrie unexpectedly and generously gifted his copyright of Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street Hospital. In recognition of the unprecedented generosity and the exceptional work of the hospital itself, the House of Lords sprinkled more fairy dust over GOSH in 1988 by voting overwhelmingly for a special clause in the UK’s Copyright, Designs & Patents Act. This amendment gives the hospital the right to a royalty from Peter Pan in perpetuity in the UK. Thus, for over 80 years so far, the story of Peter Pan has benefitted the seriously ill children who come to GOSH for life-saving treatment every day, and will continue to do so in the future.
