nansk Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Thank you very much for sharing the link! Can someone help me get it on my phone? I downloaded the app but I can only listen to the book online. Any ideas? The download link is to an MP3 file. Right click on the link and save the file to your computer or phone. Then you can listen to the file in any music app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nature girl Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Rach, do you know how you can access the Beatrix Potter? All I could find was a link to the d'Aulaires' (a great find!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carriede Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Doesn't look like it's for Andriod... would it work through iTunes or do you have to have the app? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie in MS Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Oh my goodness! When I saw "Free Peter Rabbit", the first thing that crossed my mind is did Mr McGregor catch him!? LOL Thanks for sharing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nature girl Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I can't find either. Do you have to do it through their app? To follow up, I did find both on their app. (I used iTunes, but I'd assume they have an Android app as well.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbutton Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 To follow up, I did find both on their app. (I used iTunes, but I'd assume they have an Android app as well.) What is the name of the app? I can't find anything in iTunes to save my life. I have the Greek myths book from another time but didn't have to use an app to download it.

I searched Random House. I searched Penguin. I think I searched both together. I just got lots of random stuff. No pun intended because I find iTunes searches an exercise in futility. I didn't know the name of the app. I also searched Peter Rabbit with those terms. I searched Jim Weiss and Peter Rabbit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathnerd Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Thank you, I got the Volumes app from your link and the 2 free books as well. We will be listening in the car to Peter Rabbit for a while now :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I searched Jim Weiss and Peter Rabbit. I totally don't remember, haha! I was just frantically searching because I really wanted to find it, especially after I saw the stories included some by T. Burgess, and I tried every possible combination of words...in the end I found the iTunes link on someone's blog post from the summer. I'm trying to decide how I feel about Weiss's narration, everything I've heard him read sounds so creepy, and sure enough, this does too. Does it fit with Beatrix Potter? Well not the way I've always read the stories, but whatever, DD has been loving it, which is all that counts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
