"A Kidnapped Santa Claus" returns to the world of L. Fran Baum's novel "The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus". Santa Claus lives in his castle in Laughing Valley. In the nearby mountains dwell the five Daemons of the Caves, who resent Santa Claus for his gifts to the children, which keep them from visiting the Daemons' caves. The Daemons start a quest to ruin Santa's activities, endangering Christmas altogether. The early-20th-century fantasy story, read by B.J.Harrison, is not to be missed by friends of Christmas mythology.
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. Frank Baum, was an American author, poet and scriptwriter. Primarily known for his children's books, he is most famous for the novel "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" and its sequels. His stories feature adventure and fantasy, and are a reinvention of familiar fairy tales. Baum's works have been featured on stage and films, most famously in the iconic Oscar-winning film adaptation The Wizard of Oz (1939), based on Baum's novel of the same name, starring Judy Garland.
