Story
What is that strange green mark on Tom’s leg? Why is he beginning to feel different and why are his legs starting to tingle? Could it really be that Tom is a robot? Facing challenges is a natural part of growing up and going to school. Just like all children, Tom in this story must learn to be brave and strong. After returning from Robot Island, the green mark on Tom’s leg is growing, and so, too, is his strength. His clothes are becoming tighter and he’s acquired amazing talents that he never had before. What is happening to him?

Story
You will find 25 stories about lions, tigers, pumas, bears, monkeys, zebras, and so much more inside. The length of each story is intentional. Children typically have limited attention spans, especially at bedtime when they might be tired or even resistant to sleep. All of the stories are geared toward four to eight-year-olds, but one- to three-year-olds can still enjoy them and may pick up on the lessons.

Mindfulness and meditation have helped millions to get to sleep with much more ease than ever before. Something that many parents haven’t considered is how these things can help their little ones to wind down, get ready for sleep, kick nightmares from their headspace, and settle in for a long night’s rest. Teaching meditation to your children might seem like an impossible feat, but many have found that their children are remarkably receptive to it when it’s presented like a story.

Story
We've all had a favorite toy that we adore beyond all others, and it will always hold a particular place in our hearts even after we've outgrown it. We treat it as if it were a friend, taking it with us wherever we go and fixing it as needed. Danny, a little boy who lived with his father, experienced just that on an isolated piece of land in Northern Canada. Christmas is his favorite holiday. He received a teddy animal that talked when you squeezed its hand when he was four years old. It's little surprise that the young man was enamored by his new soft-spoken acquaintance.

Summary
The Brain Swapping Machine
Children have such vivid and vibrant imaginations. In early childhood creativity is often linked to drawing, making, messy-play, and art. It is important to encourage our child’s creativity and The Brain Swapping Machine is a perfect audiobook for this!
Ellis and Archie are two little boys who are given a task of inventing something fantastic for a scientist that is coming into their school. They want their model to be bigger, better, and more exciting than anyone else’s. They invent a Brain Swapping Machine! But will this machine actually work?
Audiobooks are a great way to feed a child’s imagination, to nurture growth, to help them learn how to play, to expand language through imagination as well as being a fantastic way to fuel a daydreamer.
The Brain Swapping Machine is written and narrated by Ann Twigg who has three children, eight grand-children, and three great-grandchildren. Ann has the ability to hook children into her stories and bring the magic of the story to life. The inspiration for this story came while working at school when she overheard two young boys having fun talking about swapping brains with a machine.
This audiobook could also be the perfect bedtime story and will have young kids hooked within the first few minutes and wanting to listen to the story again and again.

Brain swapping fun at the school science fair!
Seven year old Ellis and Archie are best friends and each have their own unique talents, one is good at making things and one is good at coming up with brilliant ideas. It's the school science competition and between them they manage to make a brain swapping machine. Trouble starts though when the teachers insist on trying it out! A creative story which teaches children the importance of being themselves.
