The Laughing Princess

Read by Seymour Hamilton
The Laughing Princess is a collection of 12 interrelated stories told to a brother and sister of that special age at which they had recently discovered that their parents did not always understand them.
Petra and Daniel are bored by the quaint fishing Village where their parents have chosen to holiday, until they picnic alone on a beach below a ruined castle. There, they encounter a small but powerful Dragon who tells them stories in which they meet a princess, a wizard, a blind man in love, a dull fellow who learns to laugh, a thief-of-hearts musician, a poet, a warrior, a beautiful girl with ambitions, a tavern girl who meets a witch, and a queen who defies a sea rover -- each one involving a different dragon.
Their world will never be the same.

Absolutely delightful! Seymour not only writes elegantly and draws us gradually in to his fictional children's Scandinavian adventure, but he reads his story with an engaging voice and rhythm. I will now out to Chapters to buy a hard cover for my Kindergarten-teacher daughter. But as an adult, I will ...

This is a charming and original story collection concerning dragons. My favorites involve a fierce small dragon and a sea-going one large in size and wisdom. The human characters are equally memorable, and the elegant language of the tales will delight adult listeners and children.
A great bunch of stories

Even though written for younger audiences the stores were very well written and entertaining. The author does an excellent job of narrating his tails and is very enjoyable to listen to.

This was like listening to an Edith Nesbit story with the mythical flavor of JRR Tolkien’s Hobbit book!!
