Publisher's Summary

Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Tales of the Peculiar by Ransom Riggs, read by Simon Callow, Garrick Hagon and Bruce Mann.

In this collection of fairy tales, Ransom Riggs invites you to uncover hidden legends of the peculiar world. A fork-tongued princess, a girl who talks to ghosts and wealthy cannibals who dine on the discarded limbs of peculiars are just a few of the characters whose stories will have you hooked.

This compelling, rich and truly peculiar anthology is the perfect gift for fans - and for all lovers of great storytelling.

Critic Reviews

Praise for Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children: "A tense, moving, and wondrously strange first novel. The photographs and text work together brilliantly to create an unforgettable story." (John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars)

Kids love these

We listen to 'Cocubolo' every night. Kids love it, some very funny turns of phrase get them every time, and the sheer absurdity of the story peaks their imagination. So creative. Quite SCP worthy in fact!
