About this listen

David and the Phoenix is a heartwarming mid-century children’s fantasy about discovery, courage, and the magic that hides in the world around us. When young David moves to a new home at the edge of a towering mountain, his imagination sparks with curiosity. But nothing prepares him for what awaits at the summit—a majestic, wise, and slightly eccentric Phoenix studying Spanish verbs and living in secret high above the world.

What begins as a chance encounter turns into an unforgettable friendship. The Phoenix takes David under its fiery wing, revealing wonders, strange creatures, and lessons that reshape the way he sees the world. Together, they embark on whimsical adventures that blend humor, enchantment, and genuine heart.

Edward Ormondroyd’s classic tale has delighted generations of listeners with its gentle wit and timeless spirit. Narrated by Jason Mann, this audiobook captures every spark of wonder, every flutter of magic, and every moment of friendship between a boy and one of mythology’s most beloved creatures.

A charming journey for families, young listeners, and anyone who remembers the thrill of discovering magic for the first time.
