Have a read through this post, Maggie. It explains how to set up a solo project. I'm sure you'll get on fine :) - good luck!

Hi Ruth,
Secrets of the Woods is finished!
http://librivox.org/secrets-of-the-woods-by-william-j-long/
It's on the book list for year 3, and marked as in progress. Would you be able to update the wiki page when you have a moment?

On the page for year 11, Theodore Roosevelt's Letters to his children is in progress (Do you just want the ones that are done?) here.

Does anybody notify AO when new audiobooks are published? I noticed they sometimes link to audiobooks...

No, I don't. They know that the list is there, so I can only hope that they check it from time to time for new additions.

Thank you, Esther and Kathrine :).

Of course, the Ambleside Online curricula and booklists change from time to time, but I'm afraid I won't ever have time to go through it all again; it was rather a time-consuming process. If any AO users ever notice any additions on the AO site, feel free to post here and I will add them to the lists.
