New Kids Audio!

Posted by Katherine on August 21, 2019 - 3:50pm

We have an amazing new item available for checkout at our library! Wonderbooks, an all-in-one kids audio. We have picture books and short chapter books.

Audio versions of short chapter books are a great tool for kids with a reading level that doesn't match their interest level. Wonderbooks provide a bridge for kids to see the written words and follow along in the story with audio. Also awesome for reluctant readers, ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning challenges.
