Day 17 of 40 Days of Catholic Media- Hurlbut’s Story of the Bible

Posted by Sean on February 22, 2008

I mentioned last week that I’m a volunteer reader for Librivox.org, recording public domain audiobooks. For a while I’ve been participating in a project to record Hurlbut’s Story of the Bible by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut, a 1904 adaptation of all the stories in the Bible for young children. The text for the story can be found at the Baldwin Project, a site dedicated to “Bringing yesterday’s classics to today’s children”. The first 3 volumes of Librivox recordings of Hurlbut’s story of the bible can be found here:

Hurlbut, Jesse Lyman. “Hurlbut’s Story of the Bible Part One” ·

Hurlbut, Jesse Lyman. “Hurlbut’s Story of the Bible Part Two” ·

Hurlbut, Jesse Lyman. “Hurlbut’s Story of the Bible Part Three” ·

Tonight I recorded 3 sections for volume 4 (Click on the blue arrow to play or right click the link and Save File as to download it to your computer):

So grab a cup of tea and curl up on the couch under a fuzzy blanket. It’s story time.
