The Gardener

An Audible Bedtime Story

By: Josie Adams, Audible Sleep

Narrated by: Minnie Driver

Audible's Bedtime Stories are designed to let you drift off with no nagging feeling that you need to listen through to the end. Their purpose is to let you slowly fall into peaceful, restful sleep.

Join Rose, a devoted botanist, as she tends to her garden throughout the different seasons. As she tills the soil, plants the seeds, harvests the bounty and prunes the flowers, she reflects on nature’s quiet wonders and the lessons her garden has taught her.

Lovely

Perfect gardening primer and lullaby rolled into one. I’m saving this in my library so I can listen again and again.

Beautiful narrative and voice

I’ll listen again. Minnie Driver’s narration was perfection - her voice, pacing, and the rest of the delivery of a thoughtful and peaceful story.

You'll dream of your perfect garden..

Soothing narration, interesting story with lots of detail to put you to sleep. Very accurate depicting some of the work involved as well as conveying the peace, joy and many rewards that come with tending to a large ambitious garden. Ideal bedtime story for gardeners or anyone who is dreaming of a garden in the future.

The Best sleep time Story

Not only is this the best sleep Story I’ve listen to, it’s also the best Garden Education. Mini Driver is a Master Story Teller; her voice is soothing and peaceful. She tells the annual Journey of Rose, a Master Gardener as she plans and creates her gardens through all seasons from casting the woodsy winter branches and vines into the compost to prepping the garden and soil, Rose is planning and planting her gardens in Spring, harvesting in Sumner and Fall, & finally putting the Garden to rest for the Winter. The Authors descriptions bring the story to life as told through Rose’s eyes as you relax picturing this fabulous Cycle of a Gardening from planning, sowing, reaping, and then a time of rest for both Rose and her Gardens.
