Louise the Adventures of a Chicken
Travelling is another venue for audio books. I love Kate DiCamillo's books, and this book: Louise, the Adventures of A Chicken won this year's Caldecott winner for children's audio books. The Stowe Library in Vermont is where I started listening to children's books on cassette tapes (all those years ago), so when I returned this year, for old time sake, I listened to this one. It is hysterical! Hilarious! Fun! it is only 20 minutes, but I have to go get myself a copy to re-listen to this. Louise is a French hen who has Indiana Jones adventures - and the sound effects alone are terrific. But the story is delightful and will captivate all listeners.
