Uncle Tom's Cabin

Hi Everyone!

It's time to start reading "Uncle Tom's Cabin" if you haven't already started reading it.  It's a fabulous story, but it can be a little more difficult to read.  The author wrote it using the slang and accents of the day.  You'll want to finish reading by October 2nd.

I loved listening to an audiobook of the story so that I could hear how it was all supposed to be pronounced.  There are lots of different versions on audio, some of them are free or really inexpensive.  My favorite one can be found at Audible.  http://www.audible.com/pd/Classics/Uncle-Toms-Cabin-Audiobook/B002V5B00G/ref=a_search_c4_1_1_srTtl?qid=1409266121&sr=1-1
