RAPUNZEL

With talented readers, original musical and realistic sound effects, Weston Woods Studios elevates the read-along to a new height. This studio production of a celebrated and award-winning children's favorite, packaged with a hardcover book, will enchant listeners and create new audiences. Maureen Anderman narrates RAPUNZEL, winner of the 1998 Caldecott Medal, in a restrained manner suited to the mystery and drama of the fairy-tale classic. The menacing voice of the sorceress, the sweet notes of Rapunzel's singing and the triumphant symphonic music as Rapunzel and her prince are reunited create a deliciously satisfying production.
