And I loved lkistening to Jackanory even when I was supposedly too old for it ...<br />Then I grew up and forgot about how wonderful listening to stories as well as reading them for yourself can be, until recently, when I picked up an audio book at the library for myself while helping my Mum select hers (she's partially sighted). And it's my great pleasure now to listen to a book in bed last thing at night: it's a terrific way of relaxing and unwinding. And even though you may have read a book already, it doesn't matter - listening to it brings a different perspective. <br />Unfortunately I only have tape and CD players, so I can't download your story - poop. Although I am thining of buying an Ipoddy thingy so I can get free audio library downloads - just not sure how technologically challenging I might find it, and no idea which to buy ... <br />Hope it goes brilliantly!madwippitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595748471651052552noreply@blogger.com
