A Letter for Santa Claus

I guessed it needed a "The" but I didn't have the text to check I got them both from the mp3 title and am planning to check title and author
Thanks MaryAnn

It all looks great. I would however like to keep this special Christmas Collection for stories and poems with a Christmas theme . I think this would work better and reach a more suitable audience over here viewtopic.php?f=28&t=63043.
There's still time and space .for you to do a Christmas one and post here if you are interested

The Elves and the Shoemaker is set during Christmas. Of course, it's your collection, but I think that's why Mary Jane selected it!

Post by **annise** » December 1st, 2016, 3:07 am

This collection is for poems and short stories in any language with a Christmas theme

. Neither of the Hans Christian Andersen stories match this criteria

Thanks AgeeC and annise,
You are correct, AgeeC, The Elves and the Shoemaker is set during Christmas (see paragraph four from the Gutenberg link) which is why I selected it; however, I will be happy to post the audio to Children's Short Stories as you suggest, annise.

Regards and Merry Christmas!
Mary Jane

Here are my 2nd and 3rd audio recordings. I enjoyed recording these so I am hoping that the listeners will also enjoy them.

These are both stories from : https://librivox.org/uploads/annise/csw16_nightafterchristmas_field_ar_128kb.mp3

In case you missed my answer - could you repost the source URL - - the posted one is your mp3 file one

Good morning to you Annise,
I am sorry about my posting the actual files again when what you actually wanted is not that.

http://www.gutenberg.org/files/18908/18908-h/18908-h.htm#THE_NIGHT_AFTER_CHRISTMAS

I do hope the above link is the correct one.

I did just preview and clicked on the link. It does take me to one of the files I had recorded. The table of contents is almost all the way at the top of the page where all the stories are listed by name.

Thanks - don't worry it's easy to do - I often do

. I'll check I got the titles right from the filenames

I hadn't - I'd always called the first one "Dear Virginia" -learn something new every day here

Hi,
I've made other 2 recordings.
I hope everything is ok. I don't know if I named the files correctly, but I can rename them if it's wrong.

Thanks Betty

Thanks Fabiola - the file names look great except for the , I'll go and replace it with a _ . commas (,) cause problems with some software so it's safer not to use them

I can PL the French text

I also tried downloading the Italian contributions but the links did not work for some reason. I could probably PL them as well, if the reader is not speaking TOO fast for me to follow the text
