Storytelling

Robert lets Rory listen to audiobooks before going to sleep. Rory likes to listen with a headset, and will usually listen for an hour before falling asleep. He gets up the next day and sometimes tells us about the story. Most remarkable are the books read by authors.  Sometimes very famous books by famous authors, telling Rory stories at night.  Robert thinks this is magic.

Our favorites are The Fantastic Mr. Fox, read by Roald Dahl; The Trumpet of the Swan, read by E.B. White;  Treasure Island, read by Alfred Molina; and Indian In the Cupboard, read by Lynne Reid Banks.

Very cool.
