Summary

The most famous Christian allegory still in print is recast in verse for kids age eight to twelve (but older listeners will love it too). In the narrator's dream, Christian follows the advice of Evangelist and leaves the City of Destruction for the Celestial City. His travels include visits to many fascinating places, including the Hill of Difficulty, the Palace Beautiful, the Valley of Humiliation, Vanity Fair, and Doubting Castle. Along the way, he meets Worldly Wiseman, Goodwill, Hypocrite, Apollyon, Faithful, Mr. Talksalot, Hopeful, Simpleton, and a host of other colorful characters. The journey is fraught with peril and requires every ounce of Christian's strength and resolve, but he presses on with determination to leave his old life behind and experience eternal life in Christ
