The Jungle Book audio book by Rudyard Kipling

The Jungle Book audio book by Rudyard Kipling
The Jungle Book audio book by Rudyard Kipling:

"A full-cast dramatisation of Kipling's classic animal adventure starring Eartha Kitt.

Rudyard Kipling's famous tale tells the story of Mowgli, the 'man-cub' rescued from the tiger Shere Khan and adopted by a wolf pack. As he grows up, Mowgli learns the ways of the jungle from Baloo the bear, Bagheera the black panther and Kaa the rock python. His life is full of adventure with the jungle creatures, but soon the time comes when he is forced to leave and take his place among his own people.

A kind woman looks after Mowgli but she can't protect him from the superstitious villagers who believe his friendship with wolves is the result of sorcery. Mowgli's only escape is to return to the jungle. But even the jungle has become a dangerous place."

A Life at Work audio download by Thomas Moore
A Life at Work audio download by Thomas Moore: The Joy of Discovering What You Were Born to Do.

"Thomas Moore is a bestselling author and internationally known lecturer. Everywhere he goes, he finds people who are expressing a growing unhappiness with their work lives. Inevitably, the question being asked is the same: “Why am I doing what I’m doing?”

In A Life at Work, Moore walks readers through the difficult and transformative process of discovering their deepest purpose in life. With his now-famous blend of spirituality and psychology, he explores the strong desire all of us have to feel fulfilled and satisfied by our work and careers. Readers will not find charts, questionnaires, or the other trappings of standard self-help books in The Worth of Our Work. Instead, Moore offers a personal and contemplative guide to traversing obstacles such as inflated egos, despair, and fear, that prevent us from finding purpose in our careers."

Having shirked the warrior legacy of his late father's Deathstalker clan for a pampered and reclusive life as a historian, Owen is ill-prepared for the harsh realities of Mistworld, a dangerous place populated by the outcasts of Lionstone's regime: the clones, the espers, the genetic inferiors of the empire."

The Essential Dylan Thomas audiobook

Essential Dylan Thomas, The

This unique combination of historical and new recordings celebrates Dylan Thomas as poet, writer and performer. Here are some of his greatest poems, stories and broadcasts: readings given by Thomas himself in the 1940s and 1950s as well as new recordings by leading Welsh actors of our own time. Under Milk Wood is Thomas's undisputed masterpiece, an unforgettable, affectionate portrait of a small Welsh town. Written for radio, its intimate blend of poetry and drama made it an instant classic; and so it remains in this unmatched recording with a perfect cast led by Richard Burton. But here, also, are two fascinating earlier radio programmes, Return Journey to Swansea and Quite Early One Morning, written and performed by Thomas, which show the past that led to Under Milk Wood.

The last two CDs contain new recordings of a selection of stories (including Memories of Christmas and A Visit to Grandpa's) and poems in which contemporary performance offers an interesting contrast to the 'authentic' voice of Thomas himself.

They almost redeemed themselves because it was read later, but I still couldn't believe it. However it is a worthwhile collection with much that he was known for. Kurt

Devil in the Junior League, The

The Junior League of Willow Creek, Texas, is très exclusive. Undesirables need not apply.

Fredericka Mercedes Hildebrand Ware (Frede to her friends) is a member beyond reproach...until her life begins to unravel. When her husband betrays her, steals her money, and runs off to places unknown, it’s something Frede would prefer to keep under wraps. The last thing she needs is to become fodder for the JLWC gossip mill. And to make matters worse, there’s only one person in town who stands a chance at helping her get revenge - Howard Grout, a tasteless, gold-chain-wearing lawyer who has bought his way into Frede’s tony neighborhood. But there’s a price: She has to get his tacky, four-inch-stiletto-and-pink-spandex-wearing wife, Nikki, into the Junior League.

The crème de la crème of Southern royalty should sit up and take notice, and hang on tight for this irresistible tale of getting in and getting even.
