A lot of the titles of audio books I see listed on Youtube do seem to be from Librivox originally. I saw a relatively new upload of the book 'A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court' by Mark Twain listed with a line drawing of a knight charging a man in a modern business suit up a tree and decided to give the work a listen. A good reading. I have seen the Bing Crosby movie of the work and have had a copy sitting on my bookshelf since high school. It was a good reading. I listened to the whole work over the next three days.
I also looked through all of my illustrated classics for the version I thought I remembered.
I watched a cartoon from 1970 that was half decent - a noted the voice of Orson Bean as the main character because I also am familiar with his voice as Bilbo Baggins in an 1970's cartoon of The Hobbit.
