Items related to David and the Phoenix
The only edition authorized by Edward Ormondroyd, including a foreword he also wrote. Fully illustrated with the original drawings by Joan Raysor.
With a tremendous surge of its wings, the Phoenix managed to seize a branch. David's leg slipped from the bird's back, and he dangled over the abyss.
Thus ends the near-disaster of their first flight together. But don't underestimate the Phoenix! Failure only makes David's new-found friend determined to get into shape so that David's education for Life can proceed. And get into shape the fabulous bird does, with a lot of effort. But just as they conclude their first successful (and very scary) adventure, the Scientists appears.
Don't underestimate the Scientist, either. He is just as stubborn as the Phoenix, and is driven by one obsession: to become famous by capturing the mythic bird. And if his traps don't work, he is fully prepared to shoot the Phoenix...

Book Description:
From the Publisher:
A wonderful read-aloud book, adventurous and very funny, with much of the magic as well as the humor of the fantastic.
David knew that one should be prepared for anything when one climbs a mountain, but he never dreamed what he would find that June morning on the mountain ledge. There stood an enormous bird, with a head like an eagle, a neck like a swan and a scarlet crest. The most astonishing thing was that the bird had an open book on the ground and was reading from it!
David and the Phoenix is a multi-voiced recording featuring author Edward Ormandroyd himself as narrator and a talented group of actors who bring to life the personalities of each of the fantastical creatures in a way that will delight young and old alike. Twelve-year-old Galen Druke gives an achingly sweet performance as the little boy who wants his education with his friend the Phoenix to continue forever. Reminiscent of classic radio drama, this magical audiobook is even better because it contains the full, unabridged text.
