Confessions of an audiobook addict. You'll find reflections on past titles, reactions to the new, and real-life examples of audiobooks in use in the classroom. I'll focus on titles for children & young adults, but feel free to post on your adult favorites
1. More Nate DiMeo on NPR's "Day to Day"


Today's NPR program "Day to Day" had the voice of Nate DiMeo elaborating on his thoughts contained in the Slate story "Read Me a Story, Brad Pitt: When Audiobook Casting Goes Terribly Wrong" mentioned in my post last Sunday.

Give a listen here to "When Audio Books Jar the Ear" - it's extra good when you can HEAR a clip of Brad's perfectly dreadful Spanish accent! Plus, I love the fact that DiMeo names Jim Dale's narration of the Harry Potter audiobooks the "gold standard." Great pointers on what makes a really good - or really bad -audiobook in an excellent just-under four minute commentary.
