About this audiobook

A man and a woman have an only daughter. One day a sheep strays, and the woman goes into the wood to find it. A witch meets her there and turns her into a black sheep, then takes her shape and walks home to the husband. The witch persuades him to kill the sheep. The daughter, who overheard, follows her mother's last request: she does not eat the soup, but buries the bones at the edge of the field. A birch tree grows there. This fairy tale comes from Andrew Lang's Red Fairy Book. Mike Polischuk reads it. A story of a cruel stepmother, a magic tree and a king's feast.
