Wabi Sabi Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Just looked it up and our library already has two copies on order! I'm #2 on the waitlist now. I wonder who else has already placed a hold on it? Must be another homeschooler, LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SevenDaisies Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Anyone know if that is just the CD? I'm guessing I would need to purchase the book separately - correct? I've never ordered an audio book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Michelle* Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 "Read by Paul Newman..." Ok, that sold me right there. I already planned on getting the book. Now my son can look at the pictures while Doc Hudson tells him the story. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never ordered an audio book. Yes, just the CD, but it's been out-of-print for a while. I bought mine from a museum store years ago for retail price. You want the book too anyway, but my kids love listening to the CDs over and over. We are even studying mythology and are making a family tree in our hallway this year.

Julie Smith Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Thanks. I'll have to ask my library to order it. Anyone know if the Norse myth book is planned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nestof3 Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 I hope the price doesn't go down when it arrives like the Magic School Bus DVDs. I feel bad about people overpaying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's how (restrictions apply) You (and anyone else that pre-orders) should be good! I think what Dawn meant with the DVDs is that the price went down a day or two after they were released, which is outside of the scope of their price guarantee. That particular thread was just a caution to us that pre-orders may not be the best way to go. Neither Dawn nor any of us foresaw this happening of course.

skeeterbug Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Is it too much to hope for a download version??? "Read by Paul Newman..." Ok, that sold me right there.

Researcher Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 This is fantastic news! My kids love the stories, but the audio version would help save my voice. ;) Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 We received the old cassettes from friends a couple of years ago. I've heard 'em so often that I can't stand them! DD#2 still loves them to pieces and they are her 'go to' (along with Jim Weiss) whenever she is out of a "fresh" audiobook to listen to. :leaving: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindsrae Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Three holds on one copy at my library already. I think I'll have to preorder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
