Hi Nistharocks,

I'm not quite sure if this was originally written as a children's story, and since the two previous versions of this were cataloged as just regular short stories, and not in the Children's category, I'm going to send this over to the regular Short Story Collection her: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=71193&start=60

(Just to be on the safe side! :-))

Thank you!
Maria

Thank you ~ a very lovely recording!

A couple of minor issues. The volume is on the low side. If you could amplify it a bit, that would be great!
Also at the end at 25:25, you have the "This is a Librivox recording, etc." bit. We do not need that at the end. If you could cut that part out and re-upload, that would be great!

For the short story collections we just do this:

At the END, say: "End of [Title], by [Author Name]"
If you wish, you may also say: "Read by...your name."

'Kay! That works! I'm pretty sure this is a children's story though. I was introduced to it for the first time when I read it in my English textbook.

Hi NisthaRocks,

Lovely recording!

There are a few minor issues.

At 1:23 "He had grown" - it has an awkward sound/cutoff at the end and a bit of a pause. If you are alright with how it is, that is fine. It just caught my attention.
At 2:30 and 4:43 the noises that you added in will have to be removed! Sorry ~ we do not allow sound effects, unless they are specifically called for in the text.

If you could fix those and reupload, that would be great!
Maria

This file is great, except at the beginning, you forgot to put the Librivox disclaimer after the author. :-) Other than that, no issues. If you could add that in, that would be great! You could probably just copy and paste it from the other recording if you want. :-)

I'll fix it, don't worry. Sorry about the sound effects - I didn't know they weren't allowed. :oops:

Right, I'll fix that. (I just knew I had forgotten something! :wink: )
