Presenting a magical new reading of Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach, read by iconic British comedian James Acaster. This immersive audiobook is bursting with fantabulous sound effects, dynamic sound design, and original music composed by Rusty Bradshaw.
James Henry Trotter is about to go on the adventure of a lifetime . . .
James lives with his awful Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker, two of the meanest people you can imagine!
Life isn't much fun at all, until something peculiar happens at the bottom of his garden . . .
A peach at the very top of a tree begins to grow . . . and grow . . . and GROW! Inside are seven very unusual insects - all waiting to take James on a magical journey.
But where will this very special GIANT PEACH take James and his new friends? And what will happen to his horrible aunts if they stand in their way?
