Nice book except some but audio missing
I liked the book and the accompanying file with some vocabulary help. I bought the kindle version to read along and get the full book text. Unfortunately the audible audio version is missing some of the text in the book. The stories aren't very long so it seems sad to be missing a part. It is clearly a technical/production error in the recording as the audio suddenly cuts off before the end of the chapter 2 in story 2. I hope they fix it and send out a memo so I can give this book the 5 starts it deserves.
