'I thought it was going to be the best Christmas ever... '
When Dad and Mum break up, Em does her best to cheer up her little brother and sister, even though she's miserable too. She dances around and tells wonderful tales all about their favourite glove puppet.
Em knows how a good story can make life seem better - she is always cheered up by reading one of her favourite books. If Em got to meet the author, it would be a dream come true. But could her other greatest wish be granted? Is any story powerful enough to bring Dad back?

Have you always loved reading but sometimes find it hard to find the time? Theres nothing quite like curling up with a good book but many of us cannot do that as much as we would llike. We sacrifice this special time because we have so many other things to do each day. It is a common problem and it is the reason why people on average are not reading as much as they once did. Audio books bring the story to life just as the storytellers of the past did. They allow you to experience the book in a whole new way; in the way the writer felt and heard it in their head. You can feel the emotion when you allow audio books to let the story come to life. |
