About this audiobook
When a grieving king vows to wed only a bride as beautiful as his late queen, his golden‐haired daughter must flee a terrible fate. Disguised in a mantle of a thousand furs, she hides as the humble scullion Cat‐Skin in a neighboring palace. But when three grand balls are proclaimed, she slips into gowns that blaze like the sun, shimmer like the moon, and sparkle like the stars—captivating the king while leaving secret tokens in his soup: a ring, a necklace, a brooch. With each feast, the mystery deepens until a single white fingertip and a hidden ring reveal the truth. Derrik Kirkham’s warm, expressive narration brings hearth and hall to life—woodland hush, kitchen clatter, and glittering ballroom—honoring the tale’s dark undercurrent and radiant hope. A timeless Brothers Grimm classic of disguise, courage, and self‐discovery, Cat‐Skin celebrates wit over rank and the joy of being truly seen. Perfect for family listening, fairy‐tale lovers, and anyone who delights in romance, wonder, and happily‐ever‐after.
