About this listen

Step into the vibrant world of ancient Jerusalem and meet Prince Absalom, a young man famous for his dazzling smile and magnificent, flowing hair that shimmered in the sun. He is the pride of his father, the great King David.

But when a terrible wrong is done to his beloved sister, Tamar, Absalom’s heart fills with a fiery anger that sets him on a dangerous path. This single act of revenge leads to a secret plot to steal the entire kingdom from his own father! Will Absalom’s charm and ambition be enough to win the throne? Or will the very thing that makes him famous—his beautiful hair—lead to his ultimate downfall in a battle that will break a king's heart? Join Absalom on an unforgettable journey of love, betrayal, and rebellion. This timeless biblical tale is brought to life with rich, sensory details that immerse you in the story. It explores the powerful bond between a father and son and the heartbreaking consequences of pride and anger. Perfect for young listeners and families, Absalom, the Prince with Beautiful Hair is a captivating story about the difficult choices we make and the enduring power of a father's love.
