Read a sample
So we settled it all when the storm was done
   As comf'y as comf'y could be;
And I was to wait in the barn, my dears,
   Because I was only three;
And Teddy would run to the rainbow's foot,
   Because he was five and a man;
And that's how it all began, my dears,
   And that's how it all began.
— Big Barn Stories

🎧 Includes the full unabridged audiobook (LibriVox recording) along with the ePub.
