Musical storytelling box tonies® and The Roald Dahl Story Company are partnering for the first time to bring three iconic stories to life. The launch of The Witches, Matilda, and James and the Giant Peach marks the beginning of the collaboration, with additional titles to be released next year.

Kicking off the partnership is The Witches narrated by actress and comedian Lolly Adefope. Meanwhile, Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet shares one of Dahl’s most loved stories – Matilda. Finally, the story of James and the Giant Peach narrated by comedian James Acaster arrives just in time for Christmas.

Commenting is Liz Peters, head of portfolio for UK & IE at tonies®.

 

 

“We are so delighted to welcome some of the world’s best loved Roald Dahl stories into our tonies® portfolio and can’t wait to introduce these stories to a new generation of tonies® listeners. Our commitment to engaging young readers by introducing them to brilliant stories that nurture the imagination continues with the launch of this special partnership.”

Laura Antonacci, director of content at tonies® USA, adds; “From the day I started at tonies®, I knew that I wanted to add Roald Dahl and his classic storytelling to our portfolio. Introducing these wonderful and entertaining stories to little listeners in such a fun and engaging way has been an absolute delight. We are looking forward to adding more popular Roald Dahl titles over the next few years.”
