The Christmas Doll audiobook

.a magical story, expertly incorporating a dash of Dickens with extensive historical research in the early Victorian era. A dollightful surprise for Santa to tuck under the Christmas tree, perhaps in the arms of an old-fashioned doll.Kirkus Reviews

Two young orphans, Lucy Wolcott and her little sister Glory, have no one in the world but each other. Every day, they labor from dawn to dusk in the bleak, cold shelter of a public workhouse in old London Town where there is little to eat and the nights are cold and damp. The only light in their lives comes from the stories that Lucy invents, stories about a family she barely remembers and a doll named Morning Glory, who, Lucy promises, is destined to return to them some day.

Then one day, Lucy finds an old, discarded doll, which Glory is certain is the long-lost Morning Glory. Morning Glory is no ordinary doll, however, and how she leads the girls to the most surprising turns of fortune makes for a heartwarming story that brims with love, hope, and the truest spirit of Christmas.

Elvira Woodruff is the author of many popular novels. Her books have won numerous awards and honors. The hundreds of letters from children that she receives each year keep her excited about writing. She lives in Martin's Creek, Pennsylvania, where she keeps a garden that is filled with morning glories.

The Children's Homer audiobook

"Published in 1918, Colum's stirring telling of the Greek epics is still unequaled as an

introduction to the classic myths for young readers."Publishers Weekly

Padraic Colum's classic retelling combines the immortal stories from Homer's Iliad and
Odyssey into one glorious saga of heroism and magical adventure. Come voyage to ancient
Greece with Achilles who, guided by the gods, seeks vengeance on the Trojans. And follow Odysseus
on his perilous journeythrough the land of the Cyclopes, past Circe the Enchantress, the terrible
Charybdis, and the six-headed serpent Scylla.

PADRIAC COLUM (1881-1972) was born in Longford, Ireland. He was a poet, playwright, and author who was a major leader of the Irish Renaissance and friend to both Joyce and Yeats. Well versed in the old Gaelic myths as well as those of other cultures, he wrote a number of books for children that retell these tales.

Earphones Awards recipient Robert Whitfield was born in England and worked for the BBC for ten years as a radio news announcer and also worked as a narrator for the Royal National Institute for the Blind in London. In addition to narrating for Blackstone Audiobooks, he involves himself in numerous stage-acting projects in the United States and Europe.
