Complete. All audio recordings can be found on our catalog page:
http://librivox.org/poems-every-child-should-know-edited-by-mary-e-burt/

Through http://dailylit.com/ I discovered a wonderful compliation of poems for children. The editor, Mary Burt, has interjected charmingly old-fashioned comments about most of the poems. Dailylit has divided the work up into 81 5-6 minute sections. I'm reading a shortened librivox disclaimer before each, and also including the titles of the poems to be found in each section. I want it to be easy for kids to find a favorite and listen over and over!

filenames: poems_ever_child_01_burt.mp3
ID3 tags:
Title: 05 - Wynken, Blynken, and Nod; The Duel
Artist: Mary Burt, ed.
Album: Poems Every Child Should Know

Got it and into the page! I left you a message.

The message (so that you don't have to go check it) is that I'll listen tomorrow morning cause I'm beat right now.

He, he I wish we had a sleepy emoticon.

The new catalog database is cool!

I've been using it for Fabulas and it's so nice to have it so clear cut, and I like that the comments space does not show up on the public view, but can be used to write yourself notes and keep the MC up to date.

hehe, not to mention that it does the % calculation on it's own Razz

Yup yup and now we have a separate "notes" field that DOES show up to the public, very useful for linking to completed chapters and for proof-listening notes!
