About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Honey-Bee by Anatole France. (Translated by Annie Lane.) Read in English by Kate Follis A sweet fairy-tale, Honey-Bee tells the story of two children raised as brother and sister, but who are not. One day they venture out to find the lake where the nixies dwell, though they are forbidden to do so. On this ill-fated journey, young George is kidnapped by the nixies and little Honey-Bee is captured by the dwarves. The tale tells of their seven years in captivity, and has some lessons on morality and love. - Summary by Kate Follis
