Audio editions are published in all four available languages: English, French, Spanish, and German. Most of them feature period music performed by actor-musicians.

Besides advocating for animals and related environmental causes, Laurel A. Rockefeller is a passionate educator dedicated to improving history literacy worldwide, especially as it relates to women's accomplishments.
