The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

Disney Classic Stories

By: Disney Books

Narrated by: Disney Publishing Worldwide

If you were asked to choose the most fabulous character in English literature, who would it be? Perhaps the one and only Ichabod Crane. When this superstitious schoolmaster moves into the quiet village of Sleepy Hollow, he quickly starts vying for the affection of heiress Katrina Van Tassel. However, this puts him in the path of town bully Brom Bones. Will Ichabod win Katrina's heart, or will he fall victim to the small town's big legend—the Headless Horseman?

Great kids story

Just like the old Disney books. This is always an enjoyable story. Short and sweet.

Narrator and music

Very good story! Worth listening to with older kiddos younger children may be a little scared.

Wonderful trip down memory lane.

A wonderful retelling of a classic tale with all of the charm that you would expect from Disney.

A classic Children's Halloween tale

Short, but thoroughly spooky telling of the classic Disney version of Sleepy Hollow, The Headless Horseman, and Ichabod Crane!

Washington Irving’s story

This is a great retelling of Washington Irving’s original work, adapted for children I believe. Well done with some sound effects, music, and voices. Apparently he is one of Americas greatest authors. You can find his complete works in several volumes, digitalized on archive.org, but getting hard copies would be even better to preserve it.
