Well, I might've got there first if not for technical snafu. I'm doing mine anyway. I understand multiple readings are ok, mine can go in a later collection, if I get the pic? I'll come up with another selection for this set, and record before I post. Just as soon as my replacement mic cable comes in.... waiting... waiting... sheesh.

Certainly different versions are welcome - we'll be versions 9 and 10 of the Velveteen Rabbit. It'll be good to hear another male voice doing it. Hope the technical problems resolve soon.

Thanks a lot!

Hi PapaDoug!

Multiple versions are always welcome! Just post your recording here once you've finished it! I'll either inculde it in this collection or carry it over to the next one...

Hi, I'm new and a little confused.... is there anything I can help with here? I came to this forum by searching "cat" so if there's a cat involved, I'm totally up for it

Hi and welcome to LibriVox, Angelica!

Well, if you feel like reading a children's story (maybe one about a cat) you are in the right place.

(This is a collection for children's short stories/fairy tales etc.. All you need to do is find a story, which is in the public domain and submit it here, once you've recorded it. Best have a look at the first post. You can find all the info there.)

Hi! I found a cute collection of stories that I would like to read, but I'm not sure if they're necessarily children's stories. If you have the time, could you tell me if this is appropriate for your section? It seems like it hasn't been done before, so if you don't accept it, I would still like to do it. If it belongs somewhere else, I can start there. Start my own project, maybe? If you could give me a pointer on how to do something like that.

Thanks so much.

Hi musicissilver!

Sorry for the late reply! I just had a look at your link and I guess they'd be better suited for our Short Story Collection: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=55483 (At any rate those I looked at sounded more like stories an adult might enjoy)

The Adventure of a Kite:

One end of the ball of twine was now attached to the body of the Kite.
