a surprise read, this is not a joke book

Although i thought this was going to be a boring old joke audio book. boy was i surprised. there were stories and some joke that were layed out in good fashion. also i was please that my younger kids were able to relate then we had to pause the play because they gave us question and we end up laughing all afternoon. This made for a very enjoyable evening and a pleasant listen with our family. this audiobook came here with us at a good time and caused us to remember the years gone by with such joy. a wonderful collection

Gentle and Comforting

Heartwarming Short Stories for Seniors is a comforting and nostalgic listen, filled with simple stories recalling great memories. I got it for my 82 yr old great aunt, whose eyesight is too poor now to read. The narration is clear and easy to follow, and for her it feels like sharing stories with an old friend, creating a relaxing experience on the times she comes to visit. She especially likes us to put it on for her when she naps.
