**In section 3 at 0:22 “Won’t” dropped from “Won’t you take a spoon?” makes it sound less like a question.
**In section 4 at 7:24 = The correction you made of “…play us a tune, if you can play ever a good one…” needs trimming. Some of what you intended to correct is still there.

Aside from those two items, great reading!

Betsy

Hi Betsy,

These two are corrected.

Thanks,
Lori

Section 6 well read, Lori. I have just one correction. At 3:46 the words “when she was shown into the room” are missing. Otherwise this is fine!

Still need you to write a summary, Lori, before I can catalog the project.
