Girl Brownies The - Ashdown...

THE GIRL BROWNIES – ASHDOWN FOREST 1919
Book 1 of 6 The Lost Brownies
The summary of this first book in the series is as follows:
In 1919, six Brownies—Lulu, Minnie, Lottie, Agatha, Bernadette, and Beryl—set out to earn their "Explorer" badges in Ashdown Forest, Sussex. Armed with a compass, a map, and boundless enthusiasm, they ventured deep into the woods, laughing and exploring. But as the day wore on, they realized they were lost. Fear crept in, but the resilient girls rallied, using the compass and map to navigate. They faced thorny brambles, startled wildlife, and fading light, singing songs to keep their spirits high. Finally, they found a stream and followed it back to camp, discovering an old rusted lantern along the way. Exhausted but triumphant, they returned to their relieved leaders, earning their badges and a newfound confidence. That night, the forest felt less daunting, and the girls dreamed of their next adventure.
I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music, “Joyful Journey”, which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, recorder, tambourine,guitar and accordion in a folk/classical and cheerful mood. The closing music, “Bloom”, ends the tale on with more of the same at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments etc. but more of an ending feel and looking forward to the next story in the series.
The story and music itself runs to just about 13 minutes and is narrated in my wife's voice, Claire, who actually was a ranger guide!
I do hope you and your family, if applicable, enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come

Journey For the Brave

Alan E. Nourse

Journey for the Brave by Alan E. Nourse - Courage will be a big qualification for the pilot who flies the first moon rocket. But who decides if a man is brave—or a coward?...
The base diner was hot and stuffy that night as Scotty Johnson sat with Mitch and Jack and the other boys, sipping his last cup of coffee before Zero Hour rolled around. Mitch and Jack had succeeded in sneaking him out of town before the reporters had guessed what was happening. Now they sat in silence, sipping their coffee, glancing at him from time to time as though to make sure he were still there. It annoyed Scotty. This was the time to laugh, and joke, and bull away as if nothing was going to happen at all.
The waitress trotted over with a coffee pot, and Scotty gave her his widest leer. "You know, I can't think of anything I'd rather have right now than a cup of coffee from you," he said. "How about a date in about ten days?"
The girl looked startled, and glanced away nervously. Mitch gave a tight little laugh. "Better watch out. Scotty. She's liable to be waiting on the landing field when you get back—"
They all laughed at that, and then silence fell again. They were nervous. Scotty could sense it, even though they tried to cover it up. All through these weeks of preparation in the hot New Mexico sun, the tension had been growing. But he should be the one to be nervous, not these lads. After all, who was the star of this show? Scotty nuzzled his coffee, and twisted his wiry five-foot-two inch frame around so that he could see the door. "Better drink up," he said. "The jeep should be here any minute."
Mitch nodded and emptied his cup as the jeep's tires screeched on the pavement outside. The door of the coffeeshop burst open, and a head with an MP's crash helmet popped in. "All set, Scotty? Let's go!"
