Toby Has a Dog and Other Books , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min
In the mountains of Tennessee over a hundred years ago, lived a young, creative school teacher named May Justus. Her students begged to hear her beloved stories, and she wrote them down and later published them. This collection features three of her much-loved books for young listeners: Toby Has a Dog, Lester and His Hound, and The Right House for Rowdy.Experience mountain life in times past through these engaging and beautifully illustrated books. "May Justus (1898-1989) wrote over 60 children's books, almost all of which were set in her home state of Tennessee. I am grateful that this talented writer left us a treasury of such delightful literature, and I am grateful that we can bring her books back to children. It's not surprising that behind such admirable literature is such an admirable woman. Not only was May Justus an inspiring school teacher, but she also served children with special needs, maintained a children's library in her attic for 20 years, and was a committed supporter of racial equality, losing membership in her church for her bold efforts to end racism."

"...the explication de texte which accompanies [Musa's] translation is instructively novel, always admirable..." his present work offers English listeners a lengthy appraisal which should figure in future scholarly discussions."

J M Barrie: The Short Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 148min
Peter Pan is a classic story. The Admirable Crichton is a classic play. And here, in this volume, are two classic short stories. They are certainly of their day and perfect pieces of their craft. And really that’s not surprising, for JM Barrie was a writer of great note. Short stories are often overlooked as being the poor, under-developed relatives of greater works. But from writers of the calibre of Barrie, this is just not so. He creates stories and characters that drive, meld, and develop into narratives that in their numerically shorter length are, in fact, the perfect length. ungekürzt. Language: English.
