Acerca de esta escucha
When Simon, an orphaned young cat, is smuggled on board HMS Amethyst, his simple life amidst the streets of Hong Kong is transformed into an adventure fit for heroes.
Bringing joy and compassion to those on board, Simon is the only puss to have been awarded the PDSA Dickin Medal, the highest honour for animal gallantry in wartime.
Based on the true events of Amethyst's Yangtze Incident, Simon's quirky yet emotional cat's-eye narrative is sure to move and entertain all who listen to it.

Heartwarming, insightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, A Dog's Purpose is not only the emotional and hilarious story of a dog's many lives, but also a dog's-eye commentary on human relationships and the unbreakable bonds between man and man's best friend. This moving and beautifully crafted story teaches us that love never dies, that our true friends are always with us, and that every creature on earth is born with a purpose.

Ivan is an easygoing gorilla. Living at the Exit 8 Big Top Mall and Video Arcade, he has grown accustomed to humans watching him through the glass walls of his domain. He rarely misses his life in the jungle. In fact, he hardly ever thinks about it at all. Instead, Ivan thinks about TV shows he's seen and about his friends Stella, an elderly elephant, and Bob, a stray dog. But mostly Ivan thinks about art and how to capture the taste of a mango or the sound of leaves with color and a well-placed line.

Life in a small town can be pretty boring when everyone avoids you like the plague. But after their father unwittingly sends them to stay with an aunt who’s away on holiday, the Hardscrabble children take off on an adventure that begins in the seedy streets of London and ends in a peculiar sea village where legend has it a monstrous creature lives who is half boy and half animal.

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Two girls survive a terrible flood in the Tasmanian bush and are rescued by a pair of Tasmanian tigers who raise them in the wild. Their story of survival is remarkable, as they adapt to the life of the tiger, learning to hunt and to communicate without the use of human language. When they are discovered and returned to civilization, neither can adapt to being fully human after their extraordinary experience. Totally believable, their story will both shock and captivate listeners as it explores the animal instincts that lie beneath our civilized veneer.

Simon Says
This is the sweet, endearing story of Simon, a black and white tuxedo cat, who was rescued from the docks of Hong Kong and smuggled aboard HMS Amethyst by teenage Seaman George Hickinbotom.
Simon's story plays out against the drama of the so-called Yangtse Incident of 1949, in which the Amethyst found herself caught up in a deadly political rat trap.
Simon does not comprehend the human motivation behind much of what befalls him and his fellow crew members, but describes the horrors in stark terms, understanding nothing, feeling everything.

Fascinating historical story beautifully read
Where does Simon Ships Out rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It's very different from my usual fare but I love this narrator so I thought I'd give it a try. I found it fascinating although I was confused who the regular audience would be as some of it was quite childlike and some very much not so. The period is captured wonderfully. And Simon's story is amazing.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Simon is obviously the hero, but I really loved the crew members.
What about Stevie Zimmerman’s performance did you like?
She has such an amazing range of characters and accents - especially since most of them are male. She makes the story make complete sense and adds a dimension and depth that couldn't happen just reading the book.
Who was the most memorable character of Simon Ships Out and why?
Simon - you're just drawn into his whole story.

It’s a kids book
Nowhere on Audible did it say kids book and I checked several times. Maybe my grandson would have liked it but I found the narrator and the trite scenarios irritating. So I didn’t finish it. Instead I looked up the true story in the internet
