About this listen

Imagine that you are a little boy. Your handsome father is dead, and each day your beautiful mother grows weaker from grief. The two of you have little money, and even less hope for the future. Would you want to give up, or can you be brave? Now a surprising message comes from England. You are heir to a title, a lordship. Soon, you will be on your way to live with a wealthy but grumpy old uncle, whom you have never met. But you are going to live with him in a castle! This is the story of Little Lord Fauntleroy. Listen to his journey from rags to riches; it is a story full of surprises. Often, the caricature festooned with golden curls and velvet suits has kept listeners from discovering Little Lord Fauntleroy for themselves. No matter what age you are, take this opportunity to listen to a classic that will captivate you with its delightful charm, humor, and insight. Narrator Virginia Leishman’s delicate phrasing is the perfect complement to Frances Hodgson Burnett’s timeless novel.

Loved it…

The narrator has a very pleasant voice, and the adult I am mostly enjoyed listening to her. I do wish though that, without losing its value, she had made Little Lord Fauntleroy's voice more childlike, but again her narrating him was above average. Quite satisfied I shall be looking for other books read by her. Narrators make us love, at least enjoy some books. Others are repellent. Here is an example of a voice that makes for a pleasurable journey!

Commendable performance

Excellent narration thank you. I can't believe I've got into my fifties without reading, watching or listening to this heart warming children's classic. I really enjoyed this production and wish I'd read it to my children when they were Little Lords themselves.

One to make you smile

Great narration. Enjoyable classic story, even though the protagonist is rather one dimensional and too good to be true. It would be nice it it were true of course. And that’s what makes a good story I suppose.

Great narration.

What a treat to find the author had an unknown story in addition to her more popular ones. This sweet story is very entertaining and a very enjoyable listen, it ought to be better known.

Very sweet and agreeable
