  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  The Pendle Witches England 1600's 
  Book 2 of 7  The Tale of Anne Whittle /Old Chattox 
   
  The books are fictionally based on the true names and part facts of seven of the accused witches involved being sentenced to death mostly, although innocent, and is as follows: 
  Anne Whittle, known as Old Chattox, was once a beloved healer in Lancashire, her voice and herbal wisdom cherished by her village. But years of hardship turned her into a bitter outcast. When a devastating drought struck, her desperate plea to the spirits brought not salvation, but a flood—and with it, accusations of witchcraft. Betrayed by her former friend Demdike and cornered by a starving village, Chattox confessed to a devil’s pact to save her daughter, Anne Redferne, from execution. Condemned as a witch, she faced the gallows with defiance, whispering to the earth itself: "The earth remembers me." Her death did not silence her. To this day, her spirit lingers on Pendle Hill, a ghostly reminder of injustice, her voice carried by the wind—a cunning woman who refused to be forgotten.  
  This is the second book in a series of seven audiobooks and I do hope you enjoy this second instalment, and it's only $3 dollars, all subsequent will remain at that price. 
  I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2  minutes plus, called Haunting Elegy, uses flute and harp to set the scene of witches living life as they could. The closing music ends in a sad way, called Melancholy same instrumental at nearly 3 minutes as the fate that befalls these innocent people awaits them.!  
  The story itself runs to about 13 minutes, and and is narrated in my own voice.

  Harley the Hedgehog & Timothy...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  In the charming village of Upton Snodsbury, Worcestershire, the local allotment committee faces a devastating crisis. Led by the pompous but kind-hearted Mr. Cabbage, the committee includes colorful vegetable-named characters like crisp Mrs. Lettuce, purple-faced Mr. Turnip, enthusiastic Miss Carrot, wise Old Mr. Parsnip, practical Mrs. Beetroot, fiery Mr. Radish, and gentle Miss Pea. Their carefully tended plots are under siege from an army of slugs and snails that munch through their leafy vegetables day and night, leaving silver trails of destruction in their wake. 
  Desperate for a solution, the committee decides to hire professional pest control experts. Mrs. Lettuce drafts an advertisement offering twenty delicious redworms per week to each successful applicant, with no tax deductions, and posts it in Mr. Pickle Green's local newsagent shop. 
  The advertisement catches the attention of two unlikely heroes: Harley the Hedgehog, a brave and spiky creature who loves rolling into a ball, and Timothy the Toad, a wise and patient amphibian with excellent hopping skills. These extraordinary animals possess the rare gift of speech and literacy, granted by a fairy godmother who encouraged them to use their abilities to help others in need. 
  The duo applies for the position, leading to a spectacularly chaotic job interview. Harley accidentally rolls into a spiky ball and bounces around the meeting hall, while Timothy's attempts to help result in further mayhem. Despite the pandemonium, the vegetables recognize that this very chaos might be exactly what they need to surprise and deter the pests. 
  Hired for their unconventional approach, Harley and Timothy begin their pest control duties with a revolutionary method: instead of harming the slugs and snails, they speak to them with gentle, kind words that make the creatures feel genuinely guilty about damaging the vegetables.
