Together this foursome must overcome The Two Weevils (Less and Greater, of course), The Spin Doctor, the weird inhabitants of Stationery City, and other dangers to bring a warning to the Emerald City before it's too late.

The Phantom Tollbooth , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 281min
Hailed as "a classic...humorous, full of warmth and real invention" (The New Yorker), this beloved story - first published more than 50 years ago - introduces readers to Milo and his adventures in the Lands Beyond. For Milo, everything's a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he's got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason! Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it's exciting beyond his wildest dreams...."I read [The Phantom Tollbooth] first when I was 10. I still have the book report I wrote, which began 'This is the best book ever.'" (The New York Times) "The Phantom Tollbooth is the closest thing we have to a modern Alice in Wonderland." (The Guardian) "The book lingers long after turning the final page.... A classic indeed." (Los Angeles Review of Books) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rainn Wilson, Norton Juster.

Speaking with the Dead in Early America : Early American Studies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 847min
In Speaking with the Dead in Early America, historian Erik R. Seeman undertakes a 300-year history of Protestant communication with the dead. Seeman chronicles the story of Protestants' relationships with the deceased from Elizabethan England to puritan New England and then on through the American Enlightenment into the middle of the nineteenth century with the explosion of interest in Spiritualism. He brings together a wide range of sources to uncover the beliefs and practices of both ordinary people, especially women, and religious leaders. This prodigious research reveals how sermons, elegies, and epitaphs portrayed the dead as speaking or being spoken to, how ghost stories and Gothic fiction depicted a permeable boundary between this world and the next, and how parlor songs and funeral hymns encouraged singers to imagine communication with the dead. Speaking with the Dead in Early America thus boldly reinterprets Protestantism as a religion in which the dead played a central role.The book is published by University of Pennsylvania Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks."Meticulously researched and highly readable…" (Ann Braude, author of Radical Spirits)"Deeply researched, compellingly written, and entirely persuasive." (Douglas L. Winiarski, University of Richmond)"A bold and provocative new reading of the Protestant relationship with the dead." (Susan Juster, author of Sacred Violence in Early America) ungekürzt.
