    REPOST - Little Women – Amy’s Adventures with Aunt March

    Hi friends. A nasty bug has been doing the rounds in my family and hit me just as it was leaving, so I don’t have the voice to be doing any recording. I’m taking this as a sign from the universe and taking a short break, so I will drop some fun readings from this year to enjoy over the holidays. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season, see you in the new year. Dave   In this week’s bedtime story, Beth’s illness continues so this reading we follow Amy’s trials staying with Aunt March. The Aunt is s nice lady, although old fashioned and Amy is unhappy. But she finds an ally in the maid. And back home, mother gets back from visiting father and everyone is glad to see her, although Jo is shocked to find that her parents are happy with a young man’s interest in Meg. But I’m sure you will be well asleep before the excitement.   Story (01:22)   Find Little Women by Louisa May Alcott https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/514   Supporting Sleepy Time TalesIf you would like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there are several ways you can support the show. ·        You can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses including Patron only episodes and special edits https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales ·        If you’re enjoying Sleepy Time Tales and would like to make a financial contribution, but would rather not commit to a monthly payment then you can throw a tip in the jar at https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales Patreon Sleep Tight Patrons JessChuckRobertaTraciCarlaJosephAYAmyJacqueAbbieGinaJYMindy Please ShareIf you’re enjoying the show, and finding it helps you sleep despite the stresses and strains of your life, the absolute best thing you can do is share it with your friends, families, acquaintances, cellmates etc. Anyone who needs a good night’s sleep might benefit.
