I am 72 years old and thoroughly enjoyed listening to you reading. So happy I accidentally stumbled onto this channel. Thank you for this special blessing.
Me too,am 40 Can't wait to let my nice which is 5 years old and I pretty much take care of her all the time can't wait for her to listen we usually listen to sleep meditations from mindful movement that helps a lot also and I have been listening to knightly God s sleep prayers as well and that's helped it has helped me wake up in a much better mood ✨😎🙏
I am 77 and have just listened to the end of this well read story. I cannot sleep well, and I did not get any last night as I listened to your story. I have never read the book and am only familiar with the movie. What a perfect voice to tell the story. I will listen to others. Thank you so much.
Yes sleep is a luxury, I need narcotics to sleep. It’s been this way for over 30 yrs. It’s prescribed and only a small amount as needed. And it’s needed every night.
@@ChildofGodforevr - I, too, have the suffering (and it is suffering) of not being able to fall asleep or stay asleep. I have not tried meds beyond melatonin, which is very, very iffy. Sleep meds could probably help me, too.
I had never read the Wizard of Oz and I had no idea how beautifully written it was even from the very beginning. Your narration is absolutely beyond reproach. Thank you
The more audiobooks I listen to the more critical I am of the narration. Compare this to ALL the other Wizard of Oz narration this is by far the BEST. Thank you for clear, concise and not over dramatic narration.😀Cheers
Just about to turn off my ipad and go to bed when i saw this vid, clicked on it and immediately was drawn in by ur voice, i have severe sleep apnea and need to listen to something soothing to help me fall asleep, looking forward to checking ur page to see what else you’ve got.

These cozy sleeping stories have become my nightly ritual, providing me with comfort and relaxation. Thank you for the soothing haven. Good night, everyone!
I’ve been using this video for sleep for years but yet I haven’t been able to listen to the whole thing but it’s still amazing and all ways work’s amazing and I get a farewell good night of sleep
That's adorable! I've been really taken with some of these "big kid books", they're really special and surprisingly deep and moving some of them! (The Wind in the Willows and Narnia have been great)
@@DownToSleep we loved the lion the witch and the wardrobe 😍 it was the first one we listened to! I love your voice and style, keeps it interesting yet soothing but not boring. Again Thank you for doing this.
It’s ridiculous you’ve been denied for partnership. Especially when you’re reading book yourself and not copying established audiobooks. So frustrating
I struggle with insomnia, but this audiobook has been a game-changer. The combination of a classic story and the sound of rain is the perfect recipe for a peaceful night's sleep. So grateful for this!
I used to watch The Wizard Of Oz all the time with my Papi, he always knew when I wanted to watch it and those were the moments that I treasured most. I love and miss my Papi
I’m going to try this. I’ve been loving loving loving hearing you read twilight and I hope you read new moon and eclipse next. I want to let you know that I’m having a lot of trouble sleeping but that you’re comforting me while I can’t sleep and when I fall asleep and I wake up and I’m scared your voice in the rain comforts me and it’s like I can feel your spirit with the intention of it to help us who are listening. I really feel that you sincerely care and I’m so grateful for you. I hope you never need comforting as much as I do but I hope that if you do it arrives immediately❤
I never knew the original Baum version before, so thank you for that. (I fell asleep before Dorothy found the Scarecrow and had to rewind this morning so I could finish the story. ^_^ ) This should prove to people who get so angry with filmmakers for changing a book in order to create a film (two vastly different medias), that such changes can still produce a great film! Again, thank you.
I will probably be listening to this a lot for the next few weeks, recently got cast as the wicked witch of the west in my school play and I’m very excited
Wow! What a great book! So much more content than the movie, I had no idea! It took a few weeks to get thru because I kept falling asleep.thank you so much for doing this. I really enjoy your readings. 🤗
What a fantastic combination! The Wonderful Wizard of Oz audiobook with rain sounds is pure magic for a cozy bedtime experience.Thank you for sharing this delightful content!
Found your channel by accident, listen to a lot of radio plays etc after lunch when i relax and sit quiet before afternoon tea, I had 'The Wizard of Oz' book when I was in junior school, always remember the differences from the classic Judy Garland & Margaret Hamilton 'Wizard of Oz' film i knew so well, with TV so awful now, your channel is very welcomed and have to say beautifully read.
I have lately started to have trouble sleeping and have many intrusive thoughts causing me to panic once I go to bed. These stories help me to focus and I always can count on them to get me to bed ☺️
So glad I found your readings, such a calm voice and helps me sleep. I love the long versions instead of the 30 min ones I've found. Thank you for doing these stories
The only down side is that you have to go back and restart the story LOL Between the reading and the rain, it doesn't take me long to drop off. Thanks so much :)
I always liked the China town, as well as the extra minions the witch had. The poor bees especially, they just ineffectively die attacking the one guy out of them all that they can’t even damage.
Had never read the book, only watched the movie. My favorite part was the backstory of the tin wood man, his empathy, and his love for the munchkin maiden. Was disappointed in the end that he made no mention of going back to her.
Woke up at 2 am to thunder from a thunder storm outside. This was still playing. I got so confused when I paused it and the thunder was still happening.

Hope you feel better!
That’s me right now. Insomniac, anxious and sick. This is helping me calm down.

Clicked on this because the Oz series were my grandmothers favorite books. Love this 💙
Yeah this is pretty 🤩 cool 😎!!!

The rain sounds just put this over the top. I’m obsessed with your channel and listen to it nightly!
Glad you enjoy it!
I love listening to books when I fall asleep but it makes it so much better when it’s a calming tone!

Thank you for doing these. I have horrible insomnia and your stories are the only thing that helps me relax at night enough to finally sleep.

Currently listening to this to help combat my anxiety and insomnia - I love the Wizard of Oz so much :)
This helps me sleep at night and distracts me a little from the pain . I have an autoimmune disease. Thanks for making these videos .
I love listening to your books as we fall to sleep. My son is 4 and we listen to "big kid books" as we fall asleep. It helps him sleep so much better.

Sweet dreams to you and everyone sharing your stories.
Your channel has become my go-to for bedtime stories. It's such a relaxing way to end the day
I love this story ... so much better than the film imo but then books are always better than the movie...
I always liked the China town, as well as the extra minions the witch had. The poor bees especially, they just ineffectively die attacking the one guy out of them all that they can’t even damage.
Sure they were going to try to kill whoever they saw when they got there, but still it’s kind of funny in a sad way that they just die like that.
I had no idea that the book was so very different from the movie. This is nearly a brand new story to me.
Thank you… it is very nice of you to read us to sleep!
I love this book i list en to this ever night tysm fkr spending ur time reading books for us
Thank youFor sharing this great book. Love your reading style. It’s been a delight thank you very much. Greetings from South Texas.
