Here are two Audible books that the younger children may enjoy. Mom and Dad will enjoy the 69 cent price for each of them.
My first (and only) foray into acting was in a production of the first item, so it holds a special place in my heart. It was in third grade. I think that I was Mr. McGregor, but I've forgotten now--it's been so many years ago (maybe if I buy the audiobook and listen to it it will jog my memory). Unfortunately, I muffed my lines but somehow we got through it. I was disappointed that I didn't get the starring role of Peter Rabbit, but considering the fact that I muffed my lines in a lesser role, I really didn't deserve it, did I?
