  Discover the intriguing story of Empress Theodora in this unabridged junior-level audio CD of Robin Phillips's Who in the World Was The Acrobatic Empress?, read by Jim Weiss.  The Emperor Justinian could not decide what to do. His people were rioting. An angry mob poured through the streets, looting, setting fires, and destroying houses and taverns. If they reached the palace, they might kill him. Justinian's trusted advisers pressed him to run to the port and sail away, giving up his throne to save his life. He turned and looked at his wife, the wisest person in the room. What would she, the Empress Theodora, urge him to do? This unabridged reading by Jim Weiss of the book is 26 minutes on one audio CD, giving second-grade readers insight into the life of this 6th century ruler. About the series: The classical curriculum introduces even the youngest student to the pleasures of true learning. Elementary students learn history not through predigested textbooks with multiple-choice answers, but through reading the stories of history. Unfortunately, biographies of great men and women of the past are almost all written for older students, limiting the ability of young students to explore history through reading. Libraries are crammed with biographies written for high school students and adults—while beginning readers are provided with a shelf full of junior-level books about football players, NASCAR drivers, and movie stars. Now, Peace Hill Press puts real history back into the grasp of the youngest historians with the Who in the World Biography Series. The entries in the series provide young readers and their parents and teachers with biographies of great men and women of the Middle Ages. Designed to be used as part of The Story of the World curriculum, these biographies give beginning historians in grades 2–4 a chance to explore beyond the textbook. The accompanying book is also available separately.

  Within the whispering grove of Reedhaven, where flute carvers etch melodies into bamboo and spirit walkers tread paths of ancient reeds, carver Lira bonds melodically with walker Kai, whose steps echo with the grove's forgotten songs. Their echoes, carved in reed vows and wind-kissed notes, play love—or silence the grove in reedless voids. As they wander flute-laced trails and spirit-veiled thickets, echoed by wind wardens and melody rivals, Lira's carving harmony merges with Kai's walking rhythm, revealing a bamboo legend of echoed tune. When a broken reed summons silence shades, they must carve the bond to resound the winds. In the echo of bamboo flutes, where every whisper tunes the heart and every step dances with melody, their melodic bond becomes the song that revives the whispering wood.

  Once upon a time and with surprising frequency, dragons kidnapped helpless princesses. As the ultimate romantic gesture, heroic princes fought the dragons and saved the damsels in distress. 
  At least, that's the story you've been led to believe. But here's a little secret: 
  Sometimes the dragon saved the princess from the princes… 
  In the kingdom of Marshwood, everybody lives happily ever after – orphans, stepmothers, everybody. King Wesick is wise and beloved. Queen Mattea is beautiful and kind. Prince Nolan is handsome and brave, and his sister Littagale is smart and talented. But when it comes time for Princess Littagale to marry, suddenly the dragon Tor flies down from Mount Shadow, kidnaps the princess, and flies her to his dark lair. 
  "Oh, no! The horror! Who will save her?" cry the townspeople. 
  With great fanfare and the cologne of testosterone, princes from near and far arrive in Marshwood and vow to rescue the princess – in exchange for the honor of becoming her husband and inheriting the kingdom. The townspeople rejoice, place bets, and everyone waits to see who will defeat Tor and save Princess Littagale. 
  But what secret is Queen Mattea hiding? And why does Tor have a spa in his lair?
