Hailed by the Times as "hugely engaging", award-winning narrator Alison Larkin selects fairytales of strong, courageous, independent, at times irreverent ladies and women who take demand with their lives, continue their own escapades, rescue themselves, or even save the men they love. They are not testimonies of helpless females shut up in high towers ready for a handsome man to rescue them while they rest for years or brush their golden mane a great deal. These heroines have far more to distinguish them than the fact that they (sometimes) finish up married to a prince. Selected and launched by Alison Larkin, the testimonies are: "The Snow Queen", "Molly Whuppie and the Double-faced Giant", "A Pottle of Brains", "Cap o' Rushes", "Hansel and Gretel", "Mr. Fox", "Clever Grethel", "Kari Woodengown", "The Twelve Dance Princesses", "Felicia and the Container of Pinks", "The Flat iron Stove", "The Hedley Kow", "The Six Sillies", "Baba Yaga", "The Old Girl in the Woods", "The Idle Spinner", "The Twelve Brothers", "Frederick and Catherine", "Little Red Cap", and "Beauty and the Beast." Award-winning audiobook narrator, comedienne, and best-selling author of The English American Alison Larkin is also a classically trained celebrity who has came out on Broadway with the Royal Country wide Theater and off-Broadway with the Royal Shakespeare Company. Recent narrations include her AudioFile award-winning tracking of Peter Skillet and The Inconsiderate Waiter by J. M. Barrie and Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Cup by Lewis Carroll.
