About this listen

In ancient Japan, a peasant couple discovers a little boy inside a giant peach. Momotaro, the Peachboy, grows up to become a courageous hero who vanquishes forever the evil band of ogres who have been tormenting his people. In this wonderful tale, narrated by actress Sigourney Weaver, good triumphs over evil, life overcomes death, and nature flourishes in the face of destruction. Original, haunting music by Ryuichi Sakamoto creates the perfect mood for this eloquent adaptation of Japan's most revered folktale. Ages seven and up. Part of the award-winning Rabbit Ears series, We All Have Tales.

Happy memories

I love this story so much! Both my brother and I listened to the cassette growing up and still quote it to this day.
