I’m thrilled to announce that the audiobook version of “Shop Tails: The Animals Who Help Us Make Things Work” is now available in our store for download.
The audiobook is read by author Nancy R. Hiller and is unabridged. It clocks in at 11 hours and 50 minutes. The audiobook also includes a bonus chapter not found in the print edition titled “Coda: Not in Kansas Anymore.” The audiobook is $24 and will play on almost any digital device (the files are in mp3 format).
The audiobook represents weeks of sometimes-grueling work by Nancy (and her supporters) plus Jacob Belser at Primary Sound Studios.
Nancy insisted that she do the recording, even though the process was made difficult by her fight with pancreatic cancer. After listening to the audiobook, I’m so pleased that Nancy made that call. She is one of those authors where I can hear her voice as I’m reading her words. So “Shop Tails” really comes to life with her at the microphone.
You can hear this for yourself by downloading and listening to the chapter: Shadow the Turkey Vulture.
If you love Nancy’s “Making Things Work,” we’re sure you’ll enjoy this David Sedaris-like audiobook version of “Shop Tails.”

Excellent. Ordered and downloaded.
I wonder if there is some way for Nancy to autograph an mp3.
Hi I want to say how I appreciated your editorial work, I hope in the near future you expand your line of books from joinery to carpentry. Best Regards from Colombia.
Vivid description of a turkey vulture!
Ordered and listened to Chapter 1 so far. This is such a perfect way to enjoy this book. Very personal stories read to you in her voice. Thank you for this gift Nancy.
