Listening to these poems is relaxing.
It's never jumbled, garbled, or taxing,
But now I must go take a nap,
Lest I spill coffee in my lap.

Oh Lomond! Your verse got me laughing out loud. Thanks for that hearty laugh. Such a surprise when I recognized that you rhymed it! Thanks for having such fun and sharing it!
Ann, I collected these to help Michele Fry and team with the attempt to link LibriVox recordings to and from Wikipedia more completely. I wonder if you might find them useful for your cataloging.

I revised this book's description
Got it, thank you!
As far as the links, I don't need them for the final project. Because the book has one "author" collecting these verses, that is the only author that we have. If this was a collection, where you collected the verses from many different sources, then I could use them if the authors didn't already have a wiki link connected with them. But, thank you for thinking of me!
Should I attribute it to Matthew Lancaster, whom I think photographed and posted it online? Or to Rodney Matthews, whom I think painted it?
Thanks
Cool picture! I would ask in the cover makers thread, just because the people who run that thread know better than I do. I will make sure that you are reserved for your project!

I'm using the following image for my cover...I want to verify that I can use it.

I did some more research. I see that the person who put the illustration into the public domain was not the illustrator. The illustrator sold the picture to a band that used it for an album cover. He continues to sell his prints.
I got a completely different idea for the cover now.
Still working on my French. I thought I'd take a shortcut and use text-to-speech for these poems rather than meticulously applying the pronunciation rules for each word. Well...I acquired bad habits. Kitty/Sonia's tutoring is helping, but I've needed a lot of practice. I'm getting it. Each time I record it I like it better. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.
Yes! Done! That one was a vigorous workout!!! So many mistakes that were so hard to fix as I learned a little something about how to speak a little French. When I woke up reciting the verses, I figured it was time to finish up and move on.
My cover is ready for me to add the final time for this file and the total. Thanks for your patience!
