You are both welcome.
ReplyDeleteUnless I overlooked it, I didn't see the Library of Congress Talking Books program mentioned in your list? I am a Talking Books Librarian in Kansas, and we offer a summer reading program for our kids. Each state offers their own summer reading program for their young readers. I encourage people to contact their local Talking Books library for more information. To learn more about the Talking Books program, you can go to http://www.loc.gov/nls/. There is a kid's page at http://www.loc.gov/nls/children/index.html
ReplyDeleteIf anyone has questions about the program or wants more info, feel free to contact me at talkingbookslibrarian AT gmail.com
Happy Reading!
