Audio Stories & Books

While traveling last week, we listened to James and the Giant Peach on CD and loved it. So, I thought I'd create an entry of audio stories we enjoy so we can refer back to it & others can, too.
  • James and the Giant Peach by Dahl performed by Jeremy Irons
  • All of the Magic Tree House books read by author Mary Pope Osborne
  • Tchaikovsky Discovers America (Classical Kids)
  • Mozart's Magnificent Voyage (Classical Kids)
  • Peter and the Wolf - several versions
  • stories by Jim Weiss - I'll record some specific names soon
  • The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis - we have the Harper Children's Audio unabridged version & it's wonderful - I like that it is unabridged - each book is read by someone different, complete with different voices - we got them for Christmas & haven't listened to them all yet, but my favorite so far is Prince Caspian read by Lynn Redgrave
  • Trouble with Tink (Disney Fairies book) by Kiki Thorpe - WONDERFUL audiobook!!! Alexandra borrowed it from the library and listened to it almost every night & in the car. We will probably buy this one.
  • Your Story Hour Volume 7 - We actually just listened to the 1st of 12 CDs today. It was about Joan of Arc. It was wonderful! Then, while Alexandra napped, I listened to about 20 minutes of the 2nd one about John Bunyan. It was wonderful, too! I can't wait to listen to the others.
