Apparently, this has specific device requirements for certain versions, so I'll provide the links to all the major vendors:
Kobo,
iTunes,
Amazon (fixed-format layout),
B&N,
Google Play (scanned pages).
The B&N and Kobo & iTunes versions contains read-along audio narrated by the author (or so the blurb says). But it needs a tablet or Android/iDevice and will not work on your regular nook/Kobo (or computer via the desktop reader, unless you have Windows 8 for Kobo or a sufficiently advanced Mac for the iBooks version.
In this bestselling modern classic, Princess Elizabeth is slated to marry Prince Ronald when a dragon attacks the castle and kidnaps Ronald. In resourceful and humorous fashion, Elizabeth finds the dragon, outsmarts him, and rescues Ronald—who is less than pleased at her un-princess-like appearance.
This ebook features read-along narration by the author as well as music and sound effects. <-- (B&N, Kobo, and iTunes versions only for this last bit)
