The Eloise Audio Collection by Kay Thompson

2016 Audie Award Finalist for Young Listeners

Tony Award-winning Broadway legend Bernadette Peters gives voice to The Plaza Hotel's most iconic resident as she makes her audio debut in The Eloise Collection.

Kay Thompson's beloved Eloise books have never been available on audio...until now To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the first Eloise book, Kay Thompson's estate personally chose Bernadette Peters to narrate the very first Eloise audiobooks. Two New York City icons unite in The Eloise Collection, four classic Eloise stories: Eloise; Eloise in Paris; Eloise in Moscow; and Eloise at Christmas Time together in one amazing audio compilation. Join Bernadette Peters as she introduces you to the life and adventures of Eloise--a one-of-a-kind audio event

Kay Thompson (1909-1998) worked in many MGM musicals throughout the 1940s as a vocalist, dancer, vocal arranger, and coach. Ms Thompson created the Eloise persona by imitating the voice of a precocious six-year-old to entertain her friends. When Eloise was released in 1955, Kay Thompson became a literary phenomenon after collaborating with Hilary Knight on an instant bestseller. To far, more than two million copies of the book have been sold. Eloise in Paris, Eloise at Christmas, Eloise in Moscow, and Eloise Takes a Bawth are four further Eloise books written by Kay Thompson and Hilary Knight.

Hilary Knight, the son of artist-writers Clayton Knight and Katharine Sturges, studied with Reginald Marsh at the Art Students League. In addition to the Eloise books, Hilary Knight has illustrated over fifty children's books, six of which he wrote himself. He lives and works near The Plaza Hotel in New York City.
