About this audiobook
Ghosts and goblins abound in Sleepy Hollow. The haunting tales of the Headless Horseman entranced Ichabod Crane. During the day, he found the stories exciting. But at night he was afraid. His fear reached new heights the night he was chased by the mysterious ghost!
The terrifying ride is brought to life in this striking graphic novel adaptation of Washington Irving's short story.
A creator biography and glossary help reluctant readers take the first step on the road to classic literature.

Washington Irving
Washington Irving Was born in New York City in 1783. He lived in the United States, England, and Spain (where he served as an American diplomatic attache). A prolific author, Irving wrote The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., Diedrich Knickerbocker's History of New York, The Alhambra, and biographies of George Washington and Christopher Columbus, among other works. He is best remembered, however, for his two most famous stories, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle."

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really enjoyed this recording. One I'll bookmark and listen to again.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A really good book I recommend it for 8 to10
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was great :) Of course I knew of the story and have probably seen short American cartoons based upon it (the description of Ichabod Crane certainly lends itself to such) but I was really pleasantly surprised. This audiobook is more like a radio drama complete with owls hooting, music, horses neighing, ladies laughing, and about 25 minutes well spent. Must have been very entertaining to early/ Americans who heard or read it.
