One Commonplace Day

I like both the reader & the story. Pansy is one of my favorite authors.

maddening inflection

A LibriVox Listener

I cannot speak for the text, because the inflection of the reader drove me crazy after five minutes. Does anyone else want to rerecord it?

good arguments for Christ and temperance

SweetClover

A classic Pansy book with a strong emphasis on the temperance question and Christian work. Definitely recommend!

All Temperance

(3 étoiles)

Phxjennifer

One of Pansy's less interesting books, it reads like it was written specifically for the WCTU.

The sing song cadence of the reader drives me to distraction. I can't take it
