Actress Kathleen Turner narrates this popular Grimm's fairy tale in which a king tells a young woman that she must spin a roomful of straw into gold by morning, or die.

Years later, he returns to claim what is his, only to find that he has underestimated the power of a mother's love.

Gem of a Find, or Maybe a Golden Thread of Joy

I stumbled across this book as I was looking for something interesting. Rumplestiltskin is one of my all-time favorite stories, so I listened to a preview. I had no idea that Kathleen Turner did narration, so it was a surprise.

Performance of this story is PERFECT! I have listened to this story almost every day since. My beau and I even tease each other with some of the names she guesses in the story.

This is an all-ages performance and story, so we adults can get a lot of joy from listening.
