Get your headphones ready!
Have you checked-out our audio section lately? The New Lenox Public Library has several ways for you to listen to your favorite books. Of course there are many books on CD and cassette tape to choose from, but we also have Playaways (pre-loaded portable audiobooks, just add headphones!) and Audiobooks you can download to your computer.
Audio books are great motivational tools to help all readers improve their listening and comprehension skills. They may also increase vocabulary and help children learn the proper way to pronounce difficult words. More importantly audio books are an engaging and pleasing activity suited for the whole family.
Here are a couple of our favorite titles:
