Book description
Born on November 5th 1850 in Johnstown, Wisconsin, Ella Wheeler was the youngest of four children. She began to write as a child and by the time she graduated was already well known as a poet throughout Wisconsin. Regarded more as a popular poet than a literary poet her most famous work 'Solitude' reflects on a train journey she made where giving comfort to a distressed fellow traveller she wrote how the others grief imposed itself for a time on her 'Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone'. It was published in 1883 and was immensely popular. The following year, 1884, she married Robert Wilcox. They lived for a time in New York before moving to Connecticut. Their only child, a son, died shortly after birth. Here we publish one of her many poetry books, Hello Boys!, that so endeared her to her audience. Ella died of breast cancer on October 30th, 1919.

I'm impressed by how much more I'm learning through audiobooks compared to traditional reading. I’d listen to this narrator read anything! Their voice was so expressive and fitting for the material. The story itself was great, but the narration took it to the next level. Definitely a 5-star experience.

Kudos to the app for making literature accessible to those with busy schedules. ListenBook's support for various download methods means I can acquire new content in a way that suits me best. Easy sharing with friends via AirDrop. Very convenient. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.
