About this listen

When his brother catches measles, Tom is sent away for the summer to stay with his uncle and aunt and is thoroughly fed up about it. What a boring summer it's going to be. But then, lying in bed one night, he hears the old grandfather clock in the hall strike the very strange hour of 13 o'clock. What can it mean? As Tom creeps downstairs and opens the door, he finds out...a magical garden, a new playmate, and the adventure of a lifetime. Una Stubbs stars as Aunt Gwen in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.© and (P)1999 BBC Audiobooks LTD Classics Fiction Literature & Fiction Science Fiction Science Fiction & Fantasy Time Travel Fantasy Funny

Having been a huge fan of Phlippa Pearce as a child I was keen to listen to this with my 8 year old son. We both loved it. The dramatisation is very well done and the story is easy to follow. It was a real joy to see my son fascinated by the events unfolding in the garden, and trying to work out what was happening, how and why...

A lovely story with a satisfying end, this was a perfect length for a holiday homeward car journey. The kids were not keen on listening at the start - they wanted the iPad - but we played this at x1.2 speed (which was a comfortable listening speed) and the story moved well and they enjoyed it. I’m sure we’ll be listening to it again on a future drive.

Great for a car journey with the kids
