Born in England – Exploring English Poetry - The South-West

"Poetry. A form of words that seems so elegantly simple in one verse and so cleverly complex in another. Each poet has a particular style, an individual and unique way with words and yet each of us seems to recognise the path and destination of where the verses lead, even if sometimes the full comprehension may be a little beyond us.Through the centuries every culture has produced verse to symbolize and to describe everything from everyday life, natural wonders, the human condition and even in its more hubristic moments, the crushing triumph of an enemy.In the volumes of this series, we take a look at poetry through the prism of individual regions of England, or sometimes more quaintly known as ‘Albion’, or ‘Blighty’, through the centuries of its gloried history.England, despite its perception of reserve and under-statement has, in reality, strode the global stage at various time in many things, both good and bad, from Empire to long distance running. Here our focus in on its literature. Famed for its fiction and dramas, it is equally admired for its plethora of gifted poets and the dazzling verse which has added so much to its artistic legacy. These classic poets are wonders of their age and of their art. Genius is written in their names.This long limb of England pushes into the Atlantic yet from its ancient past until today its creative contribution is woven in gloried threads into the culture of the whole Nation."

Goldilocks and the Three bears

"'Goldilocks and the three bears' is a family-friendly variation of an old tale in which a woman enter the house of three bears, eats their food, sits on their chair, and sleeps in their bed. This very old nursery tale is one of the most popular stories in the English language. It suggests the importance of respecting property and the consequences of just 'trying out' things that do not belong to you. As such, it will spark important interrogations from children: was Goldilocks right to come into the house? Were the bears really scary, or just helpless victims? What would have been the best thing to do? The story of Goldilocks will inspire children, teach them valuable lessons, ignite their imagination and help them develop in an insightful and healthy way. Enjoy the warm and lively narration on this audiobook, while you share with your children this essential part of our culture. - -"

[Spanish] - Ricitos de oro

"Una colección de 15 cuentos clásicos infantiles, narrados a voz de Mario Iván Martínez. Ricitos de Oro era una niña a la que le gustaba reunir ramos de flores de los lindes del bosque. Un día camina demasiado lejos y se pierde entre los árboles, incapaz de encontrar el camino de vuelta al pueblo. Después de caminar mucho y cada vez más asustada, encuentra en medio del bosque una cabaña de madera vacía. Hambrienta, cansada y con miedo por la noche en ciernes, entra a la cabaña y encuentra una mesa con tres platos de avena. Prueba el primero, pero estaba muy caliente. Prueba el segundo, pero estaba muy frío. Prueba el tercero, ¡y estaba perfecto! Tiene experiencias similares con una silla y una cama, hasta que cae dormida por el cansancio. Mamá, Papá y Bebé Oso, los dueños de la cabaña, eventualmente regresan a su hogar y ¡cuál sería su sorpresa al encontrar a una niña con cabello de oro dormida en la cama!"
