One final bonus episode this week, as we ramp up to get back to your regularly scheduled podcasts! Today, Mere has selected a few poems from Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses, and they're read by our dad! You get to listen to the voice that read to us growing up. Usually it put us to sleep at bedtime, but hopefully it won't have such an effect on you!

Poems you'll find in this episode:

• To Any Reader
• Travel
• Bed in Summer
• Auntie's Skirts
• The Land of Counterpane
• The Land of Nod
• My Shadow
• Escape at Bedtime
• The Swing
• The Unseen Playmate
• My Ship and I
• My Kingdom
• The Dumb Soldier
• Autumn Fires
• Night and Day
• The Moon
• The Land of Story-Books

Also, while briefly discussing last week's shaggy dog story, I made reference to Norm Macdonald's moth joke. Take a few minutes to check it out - it's one of my favorites!

For next week, we'll be starting Northanger Abbey! Look for chapters 1 - 8 in your feed on Tuesday!
