Story
Long ago in Russia, a proclamation went out through all the land that whosoever could build a flying ship would win the hand of the Tsar's daughter. But when a country bumpkin and his oddball crew of extraordinary friends show up to claim her, the Tsar quickly has second thoughts. Robin Williams is hilarious as he narrates this retelling of a fantastical Russian folktale.

The White cat
Darling story, with music added. My only disappointment was, it was to short. Emma Thompson always does a magnificent job in all the books she narrates. Was not a book of violence. Perfect for a short bedtime story for your young children. Pleasant, slowly quieting all who listen.
