B. J. Harrison Reads The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus (The Classic Tales with B. J. Harrison) lydbog

The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus reveals the story behind the man we all know. In this children's fantasy story, baby Claus is discovered in a forest by a supreme immortal and placed in the care of a lioness and later a wood nymph. Claus is kind towards children and spends his time making toys for them, but not everyone is pleased with his activities and will do all they can to make it stop. The story by L. Frank Baum, known to most as the author of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," has been turned into a graphic novel and the 1994 anime television mini-series Shounen Santa no daibôken. B. J. Harrison started his Classic Tales Podcast back in 2007, wanting to breathe new life into classic stories. He masterfully plays with a wide array of voices and accents and has since then produced over 500 audiobooks. Now in collaboration with SAGA Egmont, his engaging narration of these famous classics is available to readers everywhere. Lyman Frank Baum (1856-1919), aka L.
