Books with title Audrey Hepburns Enchanted Tales

As one of her final projects, Audrey Hepburn left the world a treasure in this collection of exquisitely told fairy tales, familiar and unfamiliar, inspired and accompanied by Ravel's Mother Goose Suite. Audrey Hepburn's Enchanted Tales features Mary Sheldon's fresh adaptations of Sleeping Beauty, Tom Thumb, Beauty and the Beast, and Laidronette, Empress of the Pagodes. The selections are woven together by fictional interludes.

Audrey Hepburn's narration brings to life four entertaining fairy tales for children and adults alike. Included here are "The Sleeping Princess," "Tom Thumb," "Laideronette, Empress of the Pagodas," and "Beauty and the Beast," charming stories that demonstrate the power of unselfish devotion and courage and the triumph of true love. This GRAMMY(R) Award-winning performance by the late film legend features not only sound effects and music from Maurice Ravel's "Mother Goose Suite" spread liberally throughout the hour but also a background story of the composer telling these stories to two young children, as remembered by one child when she was an elderly lady, all delivered in Audrey Hepburn's unique and cultured style.
