Clara Vance

Listen to The Sound of the Morning by Clara Vance as a bilingual audiobook with synchronized read-along text in English and Gujarati.

Clara woke up early when the sun began to rise. The morning light filled her small, bright apartment softly. She stretched her arms and smiled at the new day. She walked into her warm kitchen to prepare breakfast. She cooked a bowl of oatmeal with flax seeds and berries. She drank a fresh glass of apple juice happily. After eating, she dressed in her favourite light cotton sweater. She put on her durable hemp shoes near the door. Clara checked her canvas backpack to make sure everything was ready. She left her apartment and locked the green wooden door. The fresh morning air smelled like sweet rain and pine trees. She walked slowly down the quiet street toward the station. Clara pulled her phone and soft headphones from her pocket. She connected the headphones and placed them over her ears. Today was Thursday, which meant a brand new podcast episode. She opened her audio app with a sense of excitement. Clara had listened to this specific podcast for five years. It was called Voices in the Morning and meant a lot to her. The show was hosted by an intelligent woman named Maya. Maya had a warm, gentle voice that always calmed Clara.
