Hi! Here's the PL Status for the Songs:

Section 13 - PL OK

Edits:

Section 14 - PL OK - The whole recording was good, but there was one minor mistake(which the BC can choose whether to fix or not, I think). At the end, the text read, "Here the crow swallows the frog." You read, "Here the crow eats the frog." Its still very minor and the song still makes sense, which is why I am going to mark it PL OK.

Section 19 - PL OK

Section 20 - PL OK

Section 21 - PL OK

Section 22 - PL OK - At the end, in the last line, you said "and" instead of "but", but the song still makes sense, so I'll mark it PL OK! It's your choice if you want to fix it, since it's just one word and a very minor mistake.

Section 23 - PL OK!

Section 24 - PL OK - This recording was really good. At 0:46, you read, "speak or break my heart", when the text read, "Speak, or my heart will break." I think the song still makes sense though, so its your choice again(its a very minor mistake and the recording was really good)

Thank you for your careful listening and catching those! I'll see if I can smoothly make those corrections but otherwise I'll leave them as is. I'll for sure go ahead and change "eat" to "swallow" in Section 14 because that is a super easy fix. Thanks again!

Your welcome! Most of the mistakes are very minor, so if you can't smoothly make those corrections(since they are mid-song), that would be fine!

Devorah-

I'm working on the accompaniment for the remaining songs and keep meaning to ask your opinion on the song which is on the back cover of the book. I would like to include it if possible but there isn't a title on it. Would it be OK to use the first couple words of the song and name it "Hey Diddle Diddle" in the magic window? I think that is the typical name for that nursery rhyme anyway.

Yes, I think that would be fine.

Great, thanks

Okie dokie! The rest of the songs have been uploaded!

I did fix the end of Song 14 but left the other mistakes as is because I couldn't get it to sound right without re-doing the entire song.

Section 25 PL OK!

I'll try to PL the rest in the next 2 or 3 days. If someone wants to jump in to help, go for it!
