I'm sure Lomond won't mind my jumping in here to give some feedback for a new reader.

No need to be nervous. You are a wonderful narrator, and these two chapters will invite listeners right into the world of Little Jack Rabbit! (Can't believe Cory gave the old Crow the name Jim)

Just a couple of technical things to take care of:

First, the opening silences are too long. At the beginning, there should be only 0.5 - 1.0 second of silence. We need 5 seconds only at the end. Easy to trim these.

Second, although within our acceptable range for volume, both of these are on the lower end at 86.2 and 87.9 respectively. Our target is 89 decibels with a range of 86-92 dB. I would at least boost Section 1 by a couple of dB.

Here is a link to a little program you can use to measure volume in decibels and also check other LV tech specs.

Checker https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Checker, written specifically for LibriVox. Just drag a file into the Checker window to check validation on all LV specs, including a readout of actual volume in decibels. Use the Amplification feature in Audacity to bring the volume closer to the LV target of 89 dB.

Just upload your corrected files under the same name and post the links here again with the new file lengths so we can give them a quick check.

You have a lovely voice and reading style so I hope we will hear a lot more from you here on LibriVox!
Feel free to read a few more chapters in this book, if you like.
