Village Diary: Fairacre Series, Book 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 297min
In her first book, Village School, Miss Read portrayed the small but detailed world of a typical primary school in a remote country area. It was a world peopled by the children themselves; Miss Clare, the venerable infants teacher; glum Mrs Pringle, the cleaner; the vicar; and other inhabitants of Fairacre. In Village Diary, Miss Read describes the people of Fairacre with the same exactitude, sense of comedy, and sharp observation. In addition to those characters familiar to readers of Village School, there are newcomers, including dictatorial Amy, an old college friend; Mr Mawne, whom the village sees as a possible husband for the unwilling Miss Read; and the earnest new infants teacher. Overshadowing everything is the mammoth country pageant, in which Fairacre is so sharply and painfully divided. Language: English. Narrator: Carole Boyd.

Being Successful - Life Bite Series, Hörbuch, Digital, 6min
We all like being successful, it makes us feel good and gives us a sense of accomplishment, too. But failure is a great part of our lives because without failure we gain no knowledge. All the major breakthroughs and developments in life have crossed over from failure. To fail is 100 times better than to have never tried. You get 10/10 for trying, you get nothing for not doing anything. Always feel pleased with yourself even if what you are doing doesn't come off. Never ever get despondent nor feel browbeaten. Yes, you may feel a little glum, granted, but that will pass because having tried indicates you are a success amongst many who at least "had a go" and have left behind those pathetic armchair experts that do nothing in life. Success always lies ahead if you keep on going. Listen to no one. Your life is yours; just keep on trucking.... Language: English. Narrator: Mr John Stewart Rushton.
