Six Creepy Stories by Edgar Allan Poe by Edgar Allan Poe (1809 - 1849) LibriVox Edgar Allan Poe has the ability to manipulate language so well that he could engage my imagination and get me terrified even though little was 'done' in the sense of horrible actions described. My imagination, under the power of his creepy words, conjured the atmosphere and did the rest by itself. In this recording I've chosen some of his stories that succeed so well in leaving lingering hair raising memories with me: The Telltale Heart; The Masque of the Red Death; The Black Cat; The Raven, the Casque of Amontillado and Berenice. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did reading them. (Summary by phil chenevert) Reading and whispering songyujing Adventure:Rebels of the Red Planet By: Charles L.

The normal butterflies from the chemicals in the air or the light headedness that you get from all the poison that cult leader put in your drink while you were reading this. It’s all very normal. I’m your humble narrator, and welcome to Black Ridge County. Bobbsey Twins on Blueberry Island, The by Laura Lee Hope LibriVox The Bobbsey twins are off to spend a summer full of fun and adventures on Blueberry Island. They will encounter a cave, and gypsies, and other things I won't tell you about. You can find out by listening to this book! As with many children's books written during this time in history, there are racial stereotypes that would not pass muster today. To edit them out would be to erase history, so I'm reading the book, as is. There is a "fat black mammy" named Dinah, and gypsies (of undetermined geographical origin) who naturally steal because they don't know any better. These stereotypes can act as a good springboard for educating your child on how far we have come, and how far we still need to go, to erase racism altogether. - Summary by Nan DodgeLaura Lee Hope is a pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate for the Bobbsey Twins and several other series of children's novels.
