Playaway Presents: Italian Fairy Tales Volume 1

This collection includes: * The Merchant and the Cloud * Oraggio & Bianchinetta * The Merchant's Beautiful Wife Italy is a land forever associated with beauty: in music, in art and in nature. Down the centuries these stories were brought home by travelers, soldiers and merchants, returning crusaders, gypsies and pilgrims. Much loved and often repeated, they grew in the telling to become wholly Italian in their nature-- which is as much to say that today they are very beautiful indeed. "...The accompanying music and sound effects are perfectly judged; the high production standards will entertain parents as much as children...." -- The New Statesman "...lively and dramatic stories that will entertain and stimulate children... -- The Observer
