Books, Cds & Dvds

Step into my story world. For decades, I’ve enchanted audiences with fairy tale heroes, tricksters, dreamers, and historic figures. Here’s a way to take these adventures home. I offer recordings, books, DVDs, and digital downloads that have earned praise and the prestigious Parents’ Choice Awards.

“Legends and Lore of Sleepy Hollow and the Hudson Valley” reveals the origins of the Headless Horseman and the restless ghosts still haunting New York’s most legendary valley, featured on The Travel Channel. Its companion, “Legends and Lore of the Hudson Highlands,” explores the American Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, the artistic legacy of the Hudson River School, and the environmental movement.

For younger readers, “The Magical, Wonderful Bul Bul Bird!” Is a classic fairy tale breaking a spell of loneliness through perseverance and respect, with stunning illustrations by Rob Bridges. You’ll find my performances on CD, DVD, and Patreon, where I share classic folktales and American folklore with the warmth, wit, and intimate drama of live storytelling.

Thank you for welcoming my stories into your home. Browse the Jonathan Kruk Store and make these tales part of your family’s traditions.

I’ve provided some testimonials below for you to read. Thank you for visiting!
