My name's Andrew. Thanks for joining me.

Tonight I'll be continuing The Story Girl by L.M. Montgomery.

Chapter 7. How Betty Sherman won a husband. And Chapter 8, A Tragedy of Childhood.

In the previous chapter, Peter made his way to church for the first time, and embarrassed himself and his cousins frightfully, though he didn't mean to.

After apologising and explaining himself, he was forgiven by all, even felicity.

Some time later, the cousins were all trying to raise money for the school library,

and they decided to ask the awkward man on the hill for money.

On their way, the story girl explained the mysterious Alice room of his house. When they arrived, they all agreed

he was a nice man, and so went on to the house of the less agreeable Mr Campbell.

Before we begin tonight's story, let's get ourselves ready for sleep. Start by taking a deep, relaxing breath.

And settle your body in whatever way feels most comfortable.

Now let any thoughts of the day drift away from your mind

and simply follow the sound of my voice. So let your eyes fall heavy
