About this listen
A young fisherman is granted wishes by a magical flounder, but his wife's extraordinary ambitions prove to be their downfall.
Public Domain (P)1978 Jimcin RecordingsEditorial reviews
A lively cast performs this classic Brothers Grimm tale where a poor fisherman catches a flounder who claims to be an enchanted prince. He frees the injured fish, but when he returns home to his filthy shack, his wife demands he return to the sea to ask the prince for a cottage. The couple receives the new abode, but the wife soon tires of the improved situation. As her greed escalates, the fisherman finds himself requesting grander homes and loftier titles. Can such ambition be sated?
