We hope to add more stories soon with audio versions attached.
The first story to be adapted to audio is "George Helps Bananas and Farmer Jones". 
For some unknown reason, we have re-titled the audio version "Bananas helps George".
We have to thank Richard Farrar for his knowledge, time, and effort (and the use of his "recording studio"). Also many thanks to Richard, his son James and Winnie Clarke for their performances! Music performed by Will Tang.
Use the player below to hear the story!
