This classic story, written by Beatrix Potter and narrated by the warm and soothing voice of Kathy Poelker, presents the escapades of our favorite little bunny as he encounters Mr. McGregor who is working in his lush garden, amid wonderful and tasty vegetables. Peter Rabbit finds himself in a mess after he squeezes under Mr. McGregor’s gate and into his garden – against the caution of Mrs. Rabbit! Will Peter find his way out again? This is an especially wonderful story to share in the springtime when bunnies seem to appear everywhere! This “just the right length” bedtime story teaches young children to listen to their parents, and it can motivate a great meaningful conversation between parent and child about the importance of obedience. A perfect story for every young child, written by a classic author and originally published in the early 1900’s in England.

Tension is high that day in the typical late-19th-century town of Muddville. We enter the ninth inning, the team is behind by two runs, and things are looking grim for the win unless by some miracle the infamous Casey can get up to bat and possibly save the day. The fans are cheering, the crowd is on alert, and hope abounds as the mighty Casey takes his position at the plate.

Written by Ernest Thayer and first published in the San Francisco Examiner on June 3, 1888, “Casey at the Bat”, narrated by Kathy Poelker, presents the roar of the crowd, the calls of the umpire, and the total thrill of the game!
