8 Audio CD's - 8 Hours and 48 Minutes. Now cured from her spinal injury, Pollyanna shares the "Glad Game" with new friends in Boston. It seems she may not be able to touch the heart of one new friend, however. The bitter and depressed Mrs. Ruth Carew, who Pollyanna goes to live with for the winter while her Aunt Polly and Dr. Chilton travel to Europe, seems beyond the charms of Pollyanna's ways. Will Pollyanna be able to reach her, and bring back joy to Ruth's heart? There are other new friends in Boston, as well: Della the nurse, Sadie, and the crippled orphan Jamie. As always, our heroine has a knack for touching hearts and making friends. But, growing up brings sorrows as well as joys. Pollyanna must face hard times when she returns home to her Aunt Polly; Dr. Chilton, her uncle, has died and Aunt Polly struggles with the burden of trying to make ends meet. Even Pollyanna seems to have a hard time maintaining her usual cheerful outlook. As there is with most growing up stories, this tale includes romance. Our CDs are packaged in premium DVD cases with CD labeling printed right on the CD in full color. We do not use paper stick-on labels, these tend to peel off over time and can really jam up car CD players and computers. We chose to use DVD cases for our CD sets, as we have found they hold up better in shipping and in regular usage than the typical CD jewel case.
