Have your children ever sat mesmerized while you read aloud?

Mine have (and precious little gets those boys to sit still).

But the time I've seen them most enthralled in a story is when Robert Green stood in front of my fireplace and spun a tale for his children and mine. They were spellbound!

Robert and his wife Rachel have been my dear friends for over a decade, and I'm delighted that they've finally decided to share Robert's storytelling gift with a wider audience.

Robert is now making FREE recordings of great stories available every week here:

You Need a Story

Even better, next week he'll be launching his first CD set with all the weekly stories recorded so far, plus some fantastic bonuses. Here's what the CD set will include:

• ALL 22 STORIES FROM YOUNEEDASTORY.COM
  
  
• PLUS 2 NEW STORIES not previously heard
  
  
• PLUS 3 FULL-LENGTH AUDIO BOOKS:
  ---The Prince and the Pauper, by Mark Twain
  ---The Five Little Peppers and How They Grew, by Margaret Sidney
  ---Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll
  
  
• TOTAL LISTENING TIME IS MORE THAN 23 HOURS of great stories!
  
  
• PLUS ALL THE TEXT of all the stories and books, so you can read along
  
  
• PLUS LOTS OF PICTURES from the original editions

Pre-publication week, with a special discounted price, starts tomorrow, June 18. So if you go ahead and sign up for the weekly story now, you'll get all the details. There's an additional discount for the first 48 hours.

Check it out here.
I've been pestering Robert to do this for years, so tell him I sent you.

Happy listening!
