    Freddy is certainly an extraordinary pig by all accounts. Although he spends his time oversleeping and overeating just like a normal pig, he also finds the time to daydream, enterprise, and even write poetry! Always full of new ideas, he proposes that the animals of Bean Farm start a tour company. Promoting himself to president of Barnyard Tours, Inc., Freddy arranges an expedition to the frigid Arctic. Freddy, Jinx the cat, Eeny the mouse, Robert the dog, Charles the Rooster and a host of other animals travel all the way to the North Pole. Unfortunately, their plans freeze as they encounter a pack of polar problems--but at least they get to visit Santa Claus! Between 1926 and 1958, Walter R. Brooks wrote 26 books on the adventures of Freddy the Pig. Considered to be one of the greatest characters in American children's literature, Freddy still enjoys enormous popularity today, and his timeless tales are considered to be the American equivalents of the Pooh stories. ungekürzt.

    Samantha’s morning started out all wrong. Oversleeping meant she had to spring out of the bed and frantically put herself together in order to get to the TV station on time for work. “Why didn’t you wake me up?” she yelled to her husband as he dragged himself to the bathroom. He shrugged his shoulders. “Sorry, you looked so peaceful.” On top of everything else, strange-sounding loud music leaked into their bedroom. She scrambled around, searing for a source. “Where is that from?” she asked him. “Sounds like tribal rhythms - maybe from Polynesia or something.” “Thank you very much, Mister professor of anthropology. That wasn’t what I meant. I meant where is that sound coming from?” Slipping into his suit, he shrugged. “Might be that new guy that moved in a few days ago.” “Honey, can you go over there and talk to him about it? He needs to understand that this is a nice, quiet neighborhood, and we don’t do that kind of thing here.” “Let’s not rock the boat, Sam.” “Phil, I know it’s awkward to have a talk with your new neighbors about -“ But before she could finish, he was halfway out the door. “Sorry, got to get to work. Bye-bye.” After an exasperated sigh, Samantha pulled herself together and walked to her next-door neighbor’s home. The house looked like every other house in the suburban neighborhood - tastefully decorated, but not too flamboyant. She rang the doorbell and waited. But the wait lasted a while. Nobody answered the door despite the noises continuing inside. Soon the noises not only went on, they intensified. She heard loud laughter, glasses clanging together, even the cracking of a whip. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Theresa Stephens.
