Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Railized Children's Story Hour. As a
0:06
reminder realize a reading service intended for people who are
0:09
blind or have other disabilities that make it difficult to
0:13
read printed material. Today we will be reading from various
0:17
books about famous women in honor of March being Women
0:23
in History months and your reader today is Diane. We
0:27
will begin with the book To the Top of the
0:30
World Barbara Hillary, the first black woman to reach the
0:34
North and South Posts and it was published by Anthem
0:39
Books for Young Readers and imprint of Simon and Schuster
0:43
Children's Publishing Division. It has the copyright year of twenty
0:47
twenty five and the author of the book is Deborah Flummmhl.
0:56
Barbara Hillary lived in a world of you can not
0:59
you can.
1:00
Speaker 2: Barbara grew up poor in Harlem, New York.
1:03
Speaker 1: Her dad died when she was small, and her single
1:05
mom earned whatever she could by cleaning other people's homes.
1:09
But hardship didn't stop Barbara's mom from teaching her to
1:13
have rich thoughts and to dream big. Barbara held onto
1:17
her dreams, and after working for fifty five long years
1:21
as a nurse, she was ready to explore exotic worlds.
1:25
She only knew about from the adventure books she lost
1:27
herself in while growing up, even if those books didn't
1:31
include heroes.
1:32
Speaker 2: Who looked like her.
1:34
Speaker 1: Barbara didn't worry about her health even when she was
1:37
seventy five, and even through cancer had made her lungs
1:42
work at seventy five percent of what they should, and
1:45
she didn't worry about being too old because she dreamed
1:48
of living, not dying, in a world of you can
1:51
not you can't. Barbara love snowy places, so her first
1:55
big dream was to go dogs lending in Quebec. But
1:59
first she'd have to learn and how So off she
2:01
went to Minnesota. On her first run, Barbara yelled mush
2:08
and whoa. The dogs took off, then whoa bump. The
2:12
sled hit a rock. Barbara flew up into the air
2:16
and landed with the boom. Barbara went home on crutches,
2:20
but that did not stop her. Next she traveled to
2:23
Mantoba to photograph Poe of Bears, who taught her to
2:27
keep her distance. Then Barbara dreamed bigger. Why not go
2:32
to the top of the world. Barbara read about Matthew Henson,
2:36
the first black man to reach the North Pole. When
2:39
she realized that a black woman had never made the
2:42
same track. An idea began to form. She would be
2:46
the adventure she never saw in her childhood books. But
2:49
a trip to the North Poe is expensive and she
2:52
didn't have much money. Plus that would require muscle power,
2:56
which she'd have to build. So she thought about what
2:59
she could do and not what stood in her way.
3:04
Barbara wrote letters again and again, asking companies for money.
3:08
Mostly she was ignored, but she didn't give up. She
3:12
ate more fruits and vegetables, She took vitamins, She lifted
3:15
weights at the gym, and huffed and puffed on a
3:18
treadmill to grow strong enough to cross country ski in
3:21
the icy code. While other people were sunbathing at the beach,
3:26
Barbara dragged a sled with a sand bag on top
3:29
of it along the sand because she'd have to ski
3:32
while pulling a heavy pack. But crunch the sled collapsed
3:37
under the weight. Still, she didn't give up. Barbara took
3:42
skiing lessons. Because to get to the top of the world,
3:45
you can't take a car, you can't take a bus,
3:48
and you certainly can't take your bike or scooter. The
3:51
easiest way is to fly by helicopter. But real adventurers
3:55
go on cross country skis, traveling eight to ten hours
3:58
each day in the fridge should cod, and Barbara was
4:01
an adventurer. An adventurer who didn't listen to the people
4:05
who told her she was too old or that she'd
4:08
be eaten by polar bears, because Barbara Hillary lived in
4:11
a world if you can not, you can't. Barbara eventually
4:16
raised the money and flew to Norway. Before the travel
4:20
company would take her to the Poe, she had to
4:22
pass a fitness test, and thanks to hard training, she did. Next,
4:27
she boarded a helicopter to the base camp Barneo, about
4:31
thirty miles from the North Pole. Dozens of heated tents
4:35
made up the camp, all seen on top of the
4:37
giant mass of floating ice. There was no running water
4:41
in the sun shone night and day, Barbara would stay
4:44
up the base camp until the weather was right so
4:47
that another helicopter could carry her a bit farther, and
4:51
then the hardest part, she'd ski for hours in the
4:54
numbing cod to reach the North Pole. When the weather
4:57
was finally clear, Barbara boarded the hell helicopter and made
5:01
her way north in the brutal coat. She and two
5:04
guides skied towards the pole, pulling their heavy packs. It
5:08
felt like they would never get there. They skied and
5:13
skied and skied until hours later, when one guide stopped,
5:17
looked around and turned to her Barbara. He said, taking
5:22
in a deep breath, you're standing on top of the world.
5:26
It was April twenty third, two thousand and seven. Barbara
5:30
Hillary was seventy five years old. She had never experienced
5:34
such sheer joy. For the first few minutes, she just
5:38
screamed and screamed, jumping up and down. She was finally
5:42
the adventure she always read about. In her excitement, she
5:46
yanked off her gloves, holding up her thumbs for a photograph.
5:49
She ended up with more than a picture. She also
5:53
got frost bite. For some people, even breaking records, breaking barriers,
5:59
and reaching the top the world isn't enough.
6:01
Speaker 2: Barbara wanted to keep going, and she did. Almost four
6:06
years later.
6:06
Speaker 1: On January sixth, twenty eleven, at age seventy nine, she
6:11
made it to another remote part of the world, a
6:13
place even more bone chilling, the South Pole. She was
6:18
the first black woman to go there too. This time
6:21
she brought milk chocolate to sweeten her long journey. Barbara
6:25
went on to visit other areas where most travelers don't go,
6:29
learning about how climate change had harmed places like the
6:32
Pops where temperatures were rising and melting their ice. With
6:36
global warming, the seas would get higher, flooding communities everywhere.
6:40
Some areas would be underwater, others would be too hot,
6:44
too cold, or too polluted. If something wasn't done, no
6:48
other adventure would be able to reach those places again. So,
6:52
along with traveling, Barbara began to lecture too small things
6:56
could make big differences. Using wind and solar power instead
7:00
of oil to heat homes, driving cars that save energy,
7:04
or biking instead of driving any more, plant based foods.
7:10
When she was eighty seven, Barbara visited Outer Mongolia, where
7:15
she met nomadic people, which means they moved from place
7:18
to place and hunt for food wherever they can find it.
7:22
Barbara asked these people, who lived so different from her own,
7:26
how climate change was affecting them. She would share their
7:29
stories with the world. She knew things could change. Even
7:34
at eighty seven, Barbara kept dreaming, learning and planning more trips.
7:38
Even as her health started to fill. Barbara was thinking
7:41
about her next adventure, even though she knew that maybe
7:44
she never go Barbara kept dreaming because Barbara Hillary lived
7:47
in a world of you can not you can't. Dreams
7:52
Barbara said, even if they don't come true are important.
7:55
I can close my eyes and still see the wonderful
7:58
mountains in Antarctica.
8:00
Speaker 2: They're blue gray, and there's the joy of silence.
8:05
Speaker 1: Our next story is Taylor Swift, a Little Golden Book biography,
8:11
and it was published by Golden Book and Imprint of
8:15
Random House Children's Books, a division of Penguin Random House.
8:19
It has a copyright year of twenty twenty three and
8:22
the author.
8:23
Speaker 2: Is Wendy Loggia.
8:27
Speaker 1: Taylor Allison Swift was born December thirteenth, nineteen eighty nine,
8:30
in West Reading, Pennsylvania. Her parents named her after James Taylor,
8:35
a famous musician.
8:37
Speaker 2: A lot of.
8:38
Speaker 1: Love surrounded Taylor and her little brother Austin. The Swifts
8:42
to many activities. As a family. They spent time reading books,
8:46
visiting new places, and having fun outside. Christmas one of
8:52
Taylor's favorite holidays, and what made the holiday season even
8:55
more exciting was that her family lived on a Christmas
8:58
tree farm pitch In at Christmas time, Taylor said, mowed
9:03
the fields on his tractor. Taylor's job picking praying mantis
9:07
egg pods off the trees. The Swifts didn't want anyone
9:11
to get a buggy surprise on Christmas morning. As a kid,
9:15
Taylor tried lots of different things. She rode horses, she
9:19
acted and plays she wrote poetry. But when she learned
9:23
how to play the guitar, she knew she had found
9:26
her passion. When Taylor has a go, nothing stops her.
9:31
She was a big fan of country superstars Faith Hill
9:34
and Shania Twain, and she discovered that both musicians had
9:37
started their careers in Nashville, Tennessee. That was all ten
9:42
year old Taylor needed to know. She asked her parents
9:44
to take her to Nashville. She asked them every day,
9:47
and finally, when she was eleven, it happened. Her mom
9:51
took Taylor and Austin there for spring break. They drove
9:54
up and down Music Row, an area with country music
9:57
recording studios and businesses. While Taylor's mom and brother waiting
10:01
in the car, Taylor ran into the offices of various
10:05
record labels and handed out CDs she made of her music.
10:10
Taylor performed anywhere that would have her, including fairs, festivals,
10:13
and ballgames. But sometimes following dreams means doing things other
10:18
people don't understand. Girls at school were mean to Taylor.
10:22
Her classmates thought it was weird to like country music
10:25
so much. This made Taylor said, but it didn't stop
10:29
her from doing what she loved. When Taylor was thirteen,
10:32
something incredible happened. RCAA Records wanted to work with her.
10:36
Taylor and her family said goodbye to Pennsylvania and moved
10:39
to Nashville. Her dream of being a country music star
10:43
was about to come true. For Taylor, writing songs was
10:47
just as important as singing them. But because she was young,
10:51
the record company wanted her to sing other people's songs,
10:54
and they thought she would wait until she was older
10:57
because she made her own album. Taylor didn't agree. One night,
11:01
Taylor performed in Nashville's Bluebird Cafe. She sang some of
11:05
her own songs and some songs from other singers. She
11:09
caught the eye of a music executive in the crowd
11:11
who was forming a new record label. Guess who she
11:15
signed up to make an album. Taylor Swift Taylor's debut album,
11:21
Taylor Swift came out when she was just sixteen. She
11:25
was excited every time she heard her songs on the radio.
11:28
Her next album, Fearless, was the top sailling record of
11:31
the year and made Taylor a huge star. Taylor is Fearless.
11:36
When she went on her first concert tour, she took
11:39
the music world by storm. One of Taylor's biggest strengths
11:43
is storytelling. Her songs tell stories that many people can
11:46
relate to. Taylor wrote all the songs on her third album,
11:50
Speak Now. Listening to a Taylor Swift album is like
11:53
hearing her diary being sung out loud. Many of Taylor's
11:58
songs are inspired by her life, like The Best Stay,
12:01
a song about growing up in a loving family and
12:03
having a supportive mom. Tail and her mom Andrea are
12:07
very close. They talk about everything. No one has known
12:10
Taylor longer or knows her better than her mom. Trying
12:14
new things and taking risk is important to Taylor. Even
12:18
though country music was her first love, she took a
12:21
big chance and recorded a pop album called nineteen eighty nine,
12:24
and it was the best selling album of the year.
12:27
Taylor never lets anything hold her back from creating music
12:31
she loves. Taylor also loves sharing things with their fans.
12:35
They know that her lucky number is thirteen. She often
12:38
hides clues and symbols in her music and videos. For
12:42
a few of her albums, she surprised special groups of
12:44
fans by inviting them to secret parties to listen to
12:48
the album before anyone else. They got to hang out
12:52
of her house and meet her family, and even bake
12:54
cookies together. When Taylor likes something, she tells everyone about it.
12:59
One things she really likes as cats. Taylor has a
13:03
big reputation for speaking out against racial injustice and for
13:07
encouraging people to vote. She seings up for other artists
13:10
in herself even when it's tough. She's not just a superstar,
13:15
she is a trailblazer. Taylor's her work is paid off.
13:19
Her albums have sold millions of copies. She has won
13:22
multiple Grammys. She traveled around the world and made people
13:25
happy with her music. What will she do next? When
13:29
you're Taylor Swift, The sky's the limits. Our next story
13:33
is titled The True Story of Maria Peppy and her
13:36
Battle to Play Ball, The Girl Who Changed Little League.
13:42
Speaker 2: It was published by Riddel Brown and Company.
13:46
Speaker 1: A Christi Altovino book and it has a copyright year
13:51
of twenty twenty six. It was written by Maria Peppy
13:56
and Gene L. S.
13:58
Speaker 2: Patrick.
14:01
Speaker 1: Every day after school, Maria finished her homework, grabbed her glove,
14:04
and sprinted down seven flights of stairs to play ball, stickball, slapball,
14:09
with a ball, baseball. Maria Peppy loved baseball best of all.
14:15
She cheered for the Yankees, traded cards with their friends,
14:18
and asked for baseball equipment each year on her birthday.
14:21
The more she played, the better she got, hitting, pitching, catching, sliding.
14:28
There were no sport teams for girls in her town
14:31
of Bocan, New Jersey, and when it came to Little League,
14:35
girls were not allowed. The spring of nineteen seventy two,
14:39
when Maria was eleven years old, a new little league
14:42
team started in the whole Boken. Maria's friends, who were boys,
14:47
walked to the corner sign up for tryouts. Maria followed along,
14:51
but when she got to the building, she only peeked inside.
14:54
Why aren't she come in, asked coach Jimmy. I'm a girl,
14:58
she said, but I can play ball. Well, what are
15:01
you waiting for? Tryouts were held near the old sewage plant,
15:07
the air stuck and the ball skipped off the pebbles
15:10
on the infield. Maria played as well as the boys,
15:13
even better, and when it came to pitching, Maria excelled.
15:17
After the second day of tryouts, coach Jimmy read the
15:20
names of those who made the team.
15:22
Speaker 2: Louis, Nikki, Maria.
15:26
Speaker 1: The Hope Pogian Little League season began with a parade.
15:30
All the teams and coaches marched down the street by
15:33
the Hudson River. Maria felt like she had hit a
15:36
home run.
15:37
Speaker 2: There.
15:37
Speaker 1: She was the only girl in a little league uniform,
15:40
gray with yellow letters, goat strips over her socks, and
15:43
a cat that fit just right as the first game.
15:48
At the first game, Maria ran onto the field. The fences,
15:52
sparkled white chalk baseline stretched their arms to welcome her.
15:56
Speaker 2: Play ball.
15:57
Speaker 1: Opposing players jeered two, four, six, eight, pictures God a
16:02
belly egg. Maria's teammates cheered, come on, Maria, you got this.
16:08
Maria wound up and fired the pitch, strike one. And
16:13
when the game was over, guess whose team scored the
16:16
most runs. But at the second game, problems started. She's
16:21
a girl, you have the other team's coach. So what,
16:24
said coach Jimmy. The rule book says she can't play,
16:28
he said, says right here, girls are not eligible for
16:33
Little League under any conditions. At the third game, Maria
16:38
pitched again. Reporters stared, parents right, coaches complained, wait till headquarters.
16:44
Here's about this, shouted one of the coaches. I just
16:48
want to play ball, Maria said to coach Jimmy. Soon enough,
16:53
the minute Little League headquarters in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania heard
16:58
about Maria, they contacted the whole broken Little League and
17:03
informed them that they were in danger of losing their
17:05
Little League charter. Maria sat in her living room with
17:08
her mom and dad as coach Jimmy explained, if Maria
17:12
couldn't continue to play, all the teams would lose support
17:16
from Little League. No insurance, no uniforms, no umpires. Maria
17:22
didn't have a choice. She would have to be removed
17:25
from the team. The hardest part was giving back her uniform.
17:29
Maria ranged her bedroom and sobbed. Who were these men
17:32
at headquarters? Didn't they care about her ability? She hugged
17:36
her cap and glove. She just wanted to play the game. Meanwhile,
17:41
a group of strong, smart women heard the news. They
17:45
belonged to an organization that helped women who were treated unfairly.
17:49
They called Maria's parents and talked for a long time.
17:52
When Maria and her parents allowed them to take her
17:55
case to court, let them, said Maria. Her parents agreed,
18:00
we have to try. Maria wouldn't be present in the courtroom,
18:04
the women later explained, but she would get lots of attention.
18:08
Would Maria have the strength to be so brave? The
18:12
complaint against the Little League was filed. News traveled fast.
18:16
Even the New York Yankees heard about Maria. Maria cheered
18:21
up when they invited her family to a baseball game
18:23
against the Detroit Tigers. They sat in box seats. Next,
18:28
she was guessed on a famous morning television show. Every day,
18:32
Maria watched her mother cut articles from the newspapers for
18:35
a scrap book. Everyone had an opinion, but some of
18:39
the comments were hurtful and angry. Girls don't belong in
18:43
Little League. They aren't tough enough. Baseball is a male territory.
18:48
Women have no right to change the rules. Why were
18:52
people so upset? The attention on Maria grew. Reporters followed
18:57
her everywhere cameras too. One of Maria's friends wasn't allowed
19:01
to play with her anymore. Sorry, Maria, he said, my
19:05
mom is worried about your wanting to play ball. She
19:08
doesn't want me to be involved, and sometimes it was scary.
19:12
Once when she rode alone in the elevator of her
19:15
apartment building, a man pointed to her, Why are you
19:18
causing all this trouble, He yelled. Girls should be at
19:22
home with their mothers. Day after day, Maria stayed brave.
19:27
She just wanted to be back on the ball field.
19:29
The summer passed. Then another summer, Maria red rode her
19:33
bike and shot hoops in the nearby park. She loved
19:37
going to the Jersey shore with her family, far away
19:40
from the attention. In the fall of nineteen seventy three,
19:44
Maria's case finally went before the New Jersey Division on
19:47
Civil Rights. The experts for Little League argued that girls
19:51
should not be allowed to play. Little League has always
19:54
been for boys. Girls might get hurt, their bones are weaker.
19:58
Little League teaches boys about citizenship and sportsmanship. Boys should
20:03
play with boys, girls should play with girls. The expert
20:07
on Maria's side argued that the girls should be allowed
20:10
to play. Girls need the same opportunities as boys. Girls
20:15
at this age are often bigger than boys, their bones
20:18
are often stronger. It's good for girls to learn about
20:21
citizenship and sportsmanship. Boys and girls must learn to play
20:25
and compete together to succeed in life. They had one
20:29
more important reason too. The baseball fields are public property.
20:34
They are for everyone, including girls. On November seventh, nineteen
20:39
seventy three, hearing Officer Sylvia Presler announced her decision girls
20:45
must be allowed to participate in Little League. The institution
20:48
of Little League is as American as hot dog and
20:51
apple pie. She stated, there's no reason why that part
20:54
of Americana should be withheld from girls. After school that afternoon,
21:00
Maria flew up the seven flights of Starister apartment and
21:03
opened the door. You on, shouted her mother. Maria's heart leaped.
21:09
She dropped her book back and marched through the living room,
21:12
celebrating with every step, but deep down she knew the
21:15
painful truth. She was thirteen years old, now too old
21:19
to play in the Little League. That evening, Maria's father
21:22
wrapped his strong arms around her. I won't get to play,
21:26
whispered Maria, just think of all the girls who will
21:29
get to play? He answered, it's because of you, Maria.
21:33
You opened the door. The battle wasn't over. Two thousand
21:38
Little League teams threatened to cancel their seasons if girls
21:41
took the field, but on March twenty ninth, nineteen seventy four,
21:45
New Jersey Superior Court upheld the ruling girls must have
21:50
the opportunity to play. The decision had a far reaching impact.
21:55
Brave girls from other states also fought to play, and.
21:59
Speaker 2: Guess that's what.
22:00
Speaker 1: On June twelfth, nineteen seventy four, Little League changed its rules.
22:05
Across the country, girls joined the boys, pitching and hitting,
22:09
and sliding and catching, all playing the game of baseball.
22:13
Speaker 2: As Maria's cap and glove.
22:16
Speaker 1: They found a place too. Our next book is titled
22:21
Maya Lynn, Artist's Architect of Light and Lines, Designer of
22:26
the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. It was published by Henry Hot
22:32
and Company, a restaurant trademark of Macmillan Publishing Group. It
22:37
has a copyright Europe twenty seventeen and the author of
22:41
the book is Jeannie Walker Harvey. In the woods by
22:45
her childhood home, Maya and Lynn played with her brother
22:49
and explored and climbed to the many rolling hills. Once
22:52
she named the lizards. Back on lawn walks alone, she
22:56
searched for birds in the forest. Maya sets to as
23:00
a statue, hoping to tame rabbits, raccoons, chipmunks, and squirrels.
23:07
In her house full of light and open spaces, Maya
23:10
read books and play chess with her brother. With paper
23:13
and scraps, she built tiny towns. Her parents had fled
23:17
China at a time when people were told what to
23:19
be and how to think. Her parents never told Maya
23:22
what to be or how to think. Maya grew up
23:25
with art. Her father was an artist who made art
23:28
with clay. Her mother was a poet who made art
23:30
with words. She watched her father form a pot from
23:35
a mound of clay without plants or drawings. Maya, too,
23:39
thought with her hands as well as her mind. One day,
23:42
when Maya looked at the patterns of light and lines
23:45
on the ceiling of her college library, she imagined she
23:48
would become an architect who created buildings with art, science,
23:53
and math. While studying overseas, Maya wandered through countries and cities,
23:59
gazing at buildings of all types new and owed learning
24:03
all she could. In her last year of college, Maya
24:06
entered a contest to design a memorial to honor soldiers
24:09
who died during the Vietnam War. The contest rules said
24:13
the memorial must blend with a park setting and include
24:16
the name of every soldier who died fighting or was missing,
24:20
almost fifty eight thousand names. These rules rained true to Maya.
24:25
She knew the power of names. Maya believed that a
24:27
name brings back all the memories of a person, more
24:30
than a photo of a moment in time. The glow
24:33
of the autumn sun, Maya walked across the field dotted
24:36
with trees, the sight of the future memorial through the
24:40
camera's eyes, she imagined a knife slicing open the earth.
24:44
In her mind, she saw the cut in the earth
24:46
healing over time to a polished edge, covered from top
24:50
to bottom with names, an edge that reflects sky and
24:53
grass and the people who visited the memorial. Back at school,
24:57
Maya sculpted a model with mashed potatoes. Then with clay,
25:01
she sketched a soft space of green and blues, and
25:04
before mailing her entry, she put her thoughts into an essay.
25:08
Speaker 2: She wrote that her long polished.
25:10
Speaker 1: Will would be quite a quiet place to remember all
25:13
those who died during the war, a place to be
25:16
experienced by walking down, then up past names that seemed
25:19
to go on forever. The contests received so many entries,
25:24
enough to fill an airplane hangar. Lots of famous architects
25:27
and artists entered. The names of the contestants were hidden
25:32
from view o ony four twenty one entries. Maya's design
25:37
was chosen, simple yet strong, creative and new. But when
25:41
they found out Maya was the winner, the judges were shocked.
25:45
She wasn't famous. She was a young woman, still in school.
25:48
Maya was as surprised as the judges. All was excitement
25:52
at first, but then people objected. People said, are designed
25:56
looked like a bat, a boomerang, a black gash of
25:58
shame there a words stunned Maya for months. Public hearings
26:02
were held. Some people wanted to change the design. Maya
26:06
was young, but she was brave. She did not back down.
26:09
Finally her design was approved. Maya worked with a team
26:13
of architects and engineers who devised plans to excavate the
26:17
land to build the wall. Granite was cut, polishing engraved
26:21
with the soldiers' names.
26:22
Speaker 2: The earth was stuck up.
26:23
Speaker 1: Maya watched the panels suspended in space, set in place.
26:28
Speaker 2: The first time Maya visited the finish while.
26:31
Speaker 1: She searched for the name of the father of a friend.
26:34
When she touched the name, she cried, just as she
26:36
knew the others would. Thousands came that veteran state to
26:40
see and touch and remember, salutes, hands on, heart's honoring,
26:45
and every day since then visitors have done the same.
26:49
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial was the first of Maya's many
26:53
works of art and architecture, memorial sculptures, structures, and spaces
26:59
inside and out. Each piece is different, but I'll share
27:02
Maya's vision. She wants people to be a part of
27:05
her art. Look, touch, read, walk around, sit by, think about.
27:10
Just like when she was a child who named a
27:13
hill the lizards back. Maya names her projects often words
27:17
from nature, names such as sounding stones, topo, the wave,
27:22
filled ten degrees north, reading a garden. After naming a piece,
27:27
the final step and shaping her artwork, Maya Lynn, the
27:31
artist architect is ready to dream, think again, and create
27:35
something new.
27:37
Speaker 2: This concludes the Children's Story. I aur for today.

27:42
fables and fairy tales. Thank you for listening and please
