    The Boy Who Shouted “Wolf!” But There Wasn’t A Wolf: And Other Tales

    Written by Geoffrey Thomas

    Narrated by Paul Michael

    ()

    About this audiobook

    The Boy Who Shouted “Wolf!” But There Wasn’t a Wolf and Other Fables brings together more of Geoffrey Thomas’s short stories, each brimming with the big-heartedness, warmth and homespun humour that he is known for. From both the ancient and modern world, Geoffrey Thomas introduces a host of extraordinary characters in his fantastical tales based on Aesop’s fables: a slave escapes death in the lion’s den; a donkey and a dog compete for attention; the sun and the wind battle to see who’s stronger. Perfect for Middle Grade (9–12 year-old) readers and teeming with gospel truth and encouragement, Thomas’s stories are a delight.
