Nice job! So the first sentence the articulation was perfect, but then you started to lose those T's and D's like pronouncing "little" as "liddle" and "peter" as "peder", so be mindful of that. If you have to go a bit slower then thats perfectly fine! Starting out slow and then working your way to a natural flow will help. The more you practice over articulating, eventually it'll become ingrained into your mind and you wont even have to think about it.

I like the sublte emotional changes in your tone, especially at "proved to be terribly tough". Your tone is really friendly. There was a moment or two like at "no longer cared" where your tone sounded a bit more darker vs what you gave the rest of the way, and then went back to being nromal again so be mindful of that cause it can change the overall vibe and emotion. great job!
