"The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship" Read by Robin Williams

Unable to decipher who the artist is sorry!
I found this recording on Tumblr and had to share, once I tracked down a better version. I had no idea Robin Williams had recorded this fairy tale. He did this project the year before he played the Genie in Disney's animated film Aladdin. It's hilarious, classic. I don't think we'll ever stop missing that guy and the way he made us laugh...

This runs about 30 minutes and is completely suitable for kids to be listening to, in fact, that's recommended.

Take a listen:

    The humorous asides! The fabulous voices! The puns! What talent that man had... And what a treat to be able to hear this recording.
