Summary
Here is a timeless classic in an exclusive audio edition featuring Matilda, who told such dreadful lies; George, who played with a dangerous toy and suffered a catastrophe of considerable dimensions; and many, many other colourful characters.
Witty, memorable, and always instructive, join the many generations who have laughed together and enjoyed Belloc's unique and biting humour.
Critic Reviews
"This CD is so good that no person will be really content without purchasing three."
"These nostalgic tales are performed with infectious exuberance by husband-and-wife team Rosalind Ayres and Martin Jarvis."
