About this listen

Discover the Magic Faraway Tree and explore the amazing lands it can take you to, in an irresistible new story by bestselling author Jacqueline Wilson, set in this much-loved world.

Milo, Mia and Birdy are on a countryside holiday, where they are astonished to find an Enchanted Wood. There they encounter some remarkable creatures, including a man with a head like the moon and a fairy with long, golden hair, who both live in the tallest tree in the wood. Little Birdy is only too happy to find that fairies are real. Even her older brother and sister are soon won over by the magic of the Faraway Tree and the extraordinary places they discover above it, including the Land of Unicorns and the Land of Dragons.

To some listeners (and their families), Moonface and Silky will be familiar friends already. The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton was Jacqueline Wilson's own favourite book as a very young child. Britain's favourite contemporary children's author, author of Hetty Feather and Tracy Beaker, now revisits this glorious magical world, weaving a brand-new story perfect for the next generation of young readers. Discover the magic!

a lovely take on a classic for big & little kids

I know it is a childrens book but I had heard an interview on the tv about it. I found it really good I loved the characters and as a fan of the Enid Blyton Book found it a lovely take on it. I love the adventures they went on and found it fun. I think Miriam Margolis was a brilliant narrator and really brought the story to life. I would recommend it to any Child of any age even grown up ones who are still children at heart.

not Jacqueline Wilson's usual style

I'm using my boyfriend's account.
I'm an adult that grew up reading her books and I'm relistening to them and her new books. this book is for a much younger audience. The reader is doing a very annoying voice for the youngest child and the character is incredibly annoying. I'll finish the book but not with a much enjoyment as I get from all the other books.

Finished the book now and it must be aimed at 5-10 where as her usual books are aimed at teenagers.

Story ends abruptly too.

Narrator let’s the story down

This is a wonderful addition to the Faraway Tree tales but it was ruined for me by the dreadful narration. In particular the voices of Pippin, Silkie & Birdie. It was like fingernails down a blackboard.
