The Cricket on the Hearth

Audible Audiobook (Audible Studios Dec. 12, 2013)

The holidays are upon us, and this year Audible is very happy to present to our members one of Charles Dickens' most popular Christmas stories, The Cricket on the Hearth. This holiday classic (original subtitle: "A Fairy Tale of Home") tells the innocent, picturesque, and charming story of a poor family and their would-be guardian angel; in short, a delightful vision of Victorian Christmas. As always, a great story calls for a great voice, so we've brought in legendary actor and record-breaking Audie and Grammy award-winning narrator Jim Dale (The Night Circus). Happy holidays and happy listening!
